Drivers on westbound 694 can't catch a break. Just minutes after a crash at East River Road cleared out, another took its place. Gridlock conditions persist from 35W over to Hwy. 100.

A major traffic jam is in place on westbound 94 from Prior Avenue over to the Lowry Hill Tunnel. Wrecks at Hiawatha Avenue and 11th Street are to blame.

In Bloomington drivers on eastbound 494 at Nicollet Avenue and westbound 494 at Lyndale Avenue are being slowed by crashes. There also is a stalled vehicle westbound at Cedar Avenue.

Northbound 35W is ugly from County Road 42 past an accident at 94th Street in Bloomington.
