The three-vehicle fender bender on southbound 35W at Hennepin Avenue has cleared out, but it's left slow traffic in its wake. It's 20 minutes from 694 to downtown Minneapolis and 35 minutes from the Forest Lake Split to downtown. We've got a pocket of very slow traffic from 95th Avenue to County Road 96.

The three-vehicle fender bender on southbound 35W at Hennepin Avenue has cleared out, but it's left slow traffic in its wake. It's 20 minutes from 694 to downtown Minneapolis and 35 minutes from the Forest Lake Split to downtown. We've got a pocket of very slow traffic from 95th Avenue to County Road 96.

Eastbound 94 crams up at Plymouth Avenue where we have a crash on the right shoulder. Out in Rogers, it's a 30 minute trip from the Crow River to downtown.

Northbound Cedar has lots of traffic. Things bog down at McAndrews Road and remain tight up to the Crosstown. That is 15 minutes.

The squeeze is on for westbound 94 drivers from McKnight Road to Marion Street. That is 15 to 18 minutes and rising.
