A new wreck on eastbound 94 at Xerxes Avenue is adding to the congestion in the area. We've had a handful of spinouts and wrecks in the area during this morning's rush, so things have been slow.

There also is a crash on the left shoulder of southbound 94 at 57th Avenue.

Westbound 694 drivers can plan on 15 minutes from 35W to Hwy. 100.

Other places are just seeing lots of cars. The drive on southbound 169 is heavy from Medicine Lake Road to the Crosstown.

Westbound 36 is packed with 17 minutes needed from Hwy. 61 to Hwy. 280.

You'll find congestion on the Crosstown in both directions between 35W and Hwy. 100. It's also busy from 28th Avenue to 35W for drivers heading west.

On northbound 169 from Anderson Lakes Pkwy. to 494 look for a steady line of traffic. And it's a slow roll on southbound 35W from County Road 10 to 694.

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.
