Things are settling down a bit after a flurry of activity earlier this morning. But we still have our issues and pockets of heavy traffic. Here is what is currently plaguing the drive:

  • Congestion on eastbound 94 from Hwy. 280 to Snelling Avenue due to utility work. The ramp from southbound Hwy. 280 to east 94 also is plugged up.
    • Crash is about to clear on westbound 694 at University Avenue. Look for minor slow dows from Silver Lake Road
      • Crash on westbound 94 at Lexington Avenue tangles traffic at Western Avenue.
        • Congestion on westbound 94 is making for more than 20 minutes from Manning Avenue to 35E.
          • A rolled over semi has the ramp from northbound 35W to westbound Hwy. 13 shut down until further notice
            • Eastbound 94 hits the skids from Maple Grove Pkwy. to the Fish Lake Interchange. Traffic is sluggish over to Boone Avenue.

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.
