A Metro Transit bus is still blocking the carpool lane on northbound 35W at Lyndale Avenue. Up ahead, a wreck on the right shoulder at 35th Street is fouling up the drive starting at 42nd Street. It's 12 minutes from the Crosstown to downtown.

The crash on 494 at E. Fish Lake Road in Maple Grove has cleared. It's still 15 minutes from Hwy. 101 to 494.

Look for a stalled vehicle on eastbound 94 at 42nd Street in Minneapolis. Emergency vehicles are on the scene. Slowdowns begin at 49th Avenue.

Traffic is tight on westbound 494 from the Minnesota River to 35W. The same is true on eastbound 394 from Winnetka Avenue to downtown Minneapolis.

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.
