A rash of crashed in the past few minutes is adding to an already miserable commute to work.

The left shoulder is blocked on westbound 94 at County Road 13. It's 54 minutes from Keats Avenue over to Hwy. 280. There also is a crash at Cretin Avenue on the eastbound side.

At Hwy. 280, the ramp from southbound 280 to eastbound 94 is blocked with a spinout.

The Crosstown is plugged in both directions from Hwy. 169 to Cedar Avenue.

A vehicle plowed into the center jersey wall on northbound 494 at Excelsior Blvd. Traffic is jammed started at Bren Road.

Look for the right shoulder to be blocked with a crash on southbound Hwy. 169 at Hwy. 610. Ahead it's 48 minutes from 94 to Crosstown.

A stall is still blocking a lane on southbound 494 at East Fish Lake Road. That's creating snarls on eastbound 94 from Weaver Lake Road to the 94/694 split.

Crews are responding to an injury crash on northbound Hwy. 52 at 200th Street.

Tough going on northbound Cedar Avenue and northbound 35W. It's over 30 minutes from County 42 to 494.

FILE -- A rent deposit slot at an apartment complex in Tucker, Ga., on July 21, 2020. 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.
