Prepare to hit the brakes on westbound Crosstown from 35W over to Hwy. 100 due to heavy traffic. Eastbound Crosstown also bunches up from 169 over to Penn Avenue.

Northbound Hwy. 169 is tight from Hwy. 101 up to 494. Look for a crash on the right shoulder at Anderson Lake Pkwy.

The wreck on westbound 494 at E. Bush Lake Road has cleared, but traffic is still sluggish from Hwy. 169 over to Hwy. 100.

Westbound 494 is 15 minutes from Cedar Avenue over to Hwy. 100. Crews are still working to clear a crash on westbound 494 at Lyndale Avenue.

You will need a few extra minutes heading east on 394 from Hwy. 169 to 94 due to the sun shining in drivers' eyes.
