Two semitrailer trucks and a Metro Transit bus are blocking the ramp from University Avenue to westbound I-694 in Fridley. At least the carpool ramp is available so drivers can still get on the freeway.

Elsewhere, we have a growing list of accidents and stalls that are snarling traffic. Here is where you will run into problems:

  • Northbound downtown exits from 35W in downtown Minneapolis
    • Eastbound I-94 at Maple Grove Pkwy. in Maple Grove. The left lanes remains closed
      • Westbound 94 at Groveland Avenue. A stall just cleared, but traffic is locked up from Huron Blvd.
        • Westbound 494 at Hwy. 100 in Bloomington.
          • Westbound 394 at County Road 73.
