A fender bender in the left lane of eastbound 94 at 101st Avenue in Maple Grove has traffic slowing in the immediate area, but the good news is that is only adding a minute or two to the drive. Ahead, it's smooth sailing down to the Fish Lake Interchange.

As the 7 a.m. hour rolls along, drive times will start to creep up, particularly on southbound I-494 through Plymouth, southbound Hwy. 169 from Brooklyn Park to New Hope, and on Hwy. 100 through the work zone in St. Louis Park.

South metro drivers can expect more company on northbound Hwy. 169 over the Minnesota River bridge and northbound 35W from Burnsville Pkwy. up to 98th Street. So far, those routes are still flowing fine.
