The work zone slow down is in place in I-694 in both directions between Hwy. 252 and 35E. Plan on 15 minutes in each direction.

On westbound 36, it's a crash at Lexington Avenue that is gumming up traffic. It's slow and go from Edgerton Street to I-35W.

One lane is now open on Mitchell Road at Lone Oak Road in Eden Prairie. Police are responding to a crash involving a pedestrian.

Both directions of 494 are going nowhere fast between Hwy. 169 and Cedar Avenue. Plan on 15 minutes there.

Southbound 35E continues to struggle from Main Street to 694 and ahead from Hwy. 36 to 94. Plan on 20 minutes from Main Street to downtown St. Paul.

On eastbound 394, look for pockets of congestion from Hwy. 169 over to Wirth Pkwy.
