8:05 a.m. update: 494 getting into the crash action

A couple vehicles involved in a meet-and-greet style crash are parked on the left shoulder of southbound 494 at 49th Avenue. As you can imagine, it's enough activity to cause a gawker slow down that begins at Bass Lake Road.

A couple vehicles involved in a meet-and-greet style crash are parked on the left shoulder of southbound 494 at 49th Avenue. As you can imagine, it's enough activity to cause a gawker slow down that begins at Bass Lake Road.

A few students heading to Century College might be a few minutes late today. A crash on Century Avenue just north of Hwy. 36 is leading to delays.

Westbound 694 is jammed from 35W to just past Silver Lake Road. Blame the tie-up on a wreck just before Silver Lake Road.
