Traffic is slowing on eastbound 694 near Long Lake Road. A vehicle went off the road and landed in the right ditch.

Watch for a crash blocking the right lane on westbound 494 at 5th Avenue in the South St. Paul/Newport area.

On southbound 494, the wreck just south of the 94/494 interchange has cleared. Traffic is still tight in the area and on eastbound 94 from Weaver Lake Road.

The right lane remains blocked on southbound 35W at Franklin Avenue with a crash.

Northbound Cedar Avenue is seeing extremely heavy traffic. Plan on an extra 10 minutes from County Road 42 to the Crosstown.
