A wreck is blocking the right shoulder on westbound 94 at Park Avenue. That's contributing to backups building near 11th Street as motorists wait to get off the freeway.

Westbound 94 has been slower than usual all morning. It's 21 minutes from downtown St. Paul to 11th Street in Minneapolis.

Look for a slight delay on eastbound 94 entering the Lowry Hill Tunnel. A wreck is off to the shoulder near Olson Memorial Hwy.

The wreck on westbound 94 at Hwy. 52 is gone. But things remain heavy from White Bear Avenue to Hwy. 52.

Also in St. Paul, the left lane of southbound 35E on the curve where it joins with westbound 94 is blocked with a spinout. Look for slow traffic beginning at Maryland Avenue.

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.
