7:55 a.m. update: Still plugged up on 35E

If you can, avoid southbound 35E. A crash blocking the left lane and part of the right lane has created a traffic jam that begins back at County Road J. Plan on 20 to 25 minutes to get past the scene.

If you can, avoid southbound 35E. A crash blocking the left lane and part of the right lane has created a traffic jam that begins back at County Road J. Plan on 20 to 25 minutes to get past the scene.

We have no other accidents at the present, but lots of heavy traffic.

Southbound Hwy. 169 is 22 minutes from 694 down to the Crosstown. But northbound is only 8 minutes from Crosstown to 394.

Eastbound 494 is 12 minutes from Hwy. 212 to Hwy. 100.

Westbound 494 is 22 minutes from Hwy. 5 to Hwy. 212.

Southbound 35W is 25 minutes from County Road 10 to Stinson Blvd.

Westbound 94 is running at 15 minutes from 35E to Cedar Avenue.

Eastbound 394 is 15 minutes from Hopkins Crossroad to downtown Minneapolis.

ANd look for minor slowing on westbound Crosstown from 34th Avenue to 35W.
