A fender bender on the bottom of the ramp from Silver Lake Road to eastbound 694 is leading to congestion in the area. Traffic slows at Central Avenue.

The worst drive of the morning is on southbound 35W from 95th Avenue to 694. Plan on 20 minutes to reach Hwy. 280.

Eastbound 94 drivers from Rogers to Maple Grove might disagree. That drive is also taking 20 minutes.

Drivers in the south metro have it pretty good with no major delays on northbound Hwy. 169, 35W or Cedar Avenue.

Crosstown drivers in both directions are moving along just fine with just a little bit of slowing between Hwy. 100 and 35W.

On 494, both directions between Cedar Avenue to Hwy. 169 is about 14 minutes.

FILE -- A rent deposit slot at an apartment complex in Tucker, Ga., on July 21, 2020. As an eviction crisis has seemed increasingly likely this summer, everyone in the housing market has made the same plea to Washington: Send money — lots of it — that would keep renters in their homes and landlords afloat.
