With only 15 minutes needed on 494 in either direction between Cedar Avenue and Hwy. 169, the drive through Bloomington is rather pleasant.

Look for the motorist who lost a tire sitting off to the right shoulder on eastbound 494 at 34th Avenue.

The motorcyle crash on northbound 35W at 26th Street has been moved to the right shoulder. All lanes are open, but traffic slows at 42nd Street. It's 13 minutes from Crosstown to downtown.

A fender bender on the left shoulder of southbound 35E at Roselawn Avenue is having a minor impact on traffic.

Watch out for pedestrians. Word of one hit on 26th and Penn Ave. S. in Minneapolis.

On southbound 35W, the State Patrol is pushing a stall out of the way at 4th Street. Traffic creeps along from Johnson Street in Minneapolis.
