8:20 a.m. update: Another incident on 35W

A crash blocking the left shoulder at Hiawatha Avenue. It's a 40 minute commute from 95th Avenue to downtown Minneapolis.

Just as a stalled vehicle at County Road C that has snagged traffic on southbound 35W has been towed away, another incident is slowing traffic.

This one is a crash blocking the left shoulder at Hiawatha Avenue. It's a 40 minute commute from 95th Avenue to downtown Minneapolis.

On westbound 94, it's 50 minutes from 494 to downtown Minneapolis. It's still nearly an hour from the Hudson Bridge to downtown St. Paul.

Westbound 494 has been inching along all morning, and now a crash at Portland Avenue is contributing to the mess. It's 30 minutes from Hwy. 5 to Hwy. 100.

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.
