The drive on westbound 94 is approaching 40 minutes from Manning Avenue to Hwy. 280. Hopefully things will shake loose now that a crash involving a Metro Transit bus at Ruth Street is out of the way.

Look for slow traffic on westbound Crosstown approaching 35W and again over near Hwy. 100.

A crash on eastbound 94 at Shingle Creek Pkwy. is leading to a 22 minute drive from 494 to Hwy. 252.

On southbound 35W, a wreck is still blocking the left shoulder at County Road J. It's 30 minutes from 95th Avenue to Hwy. 280, with congestion in place down to Hennepin Avenue.

Northbound 35W is filling in from Diamond Lake Road to 94. It's 10 minutes.

Northbound 35E is heavier than usual, moving a 30 miles per hour. It's 20 minutes from 494 to 94.

In the south metro, westbound 494 is clogged from Cedar Avenue to Hwy. 100. Otherwise Cedar and Hwy. 169 are moving reasonable well.

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.
