Crashes on 35W in the north metro and in south Minneapolis are making the commute difficult for drivers.

The newest is on southbound 35W at County Road 88. It's 25 minutes from 95th Avenue to Hwy. 280.

In Minneapolis, crews are cleaning up a wreck at 46th Street. Brake lights come on at 66th Street. That's also affecting eastbound Crosstown traffic. Things slow starting at Xerxes Avenue.

Southbound Hwy. 100 remains snarled from Hwy. 55 to 50th Street. A wreck at 50th has been there for more than 45 minutes. Plan on a 20 to 25 minute delay.

Two other mishaps: Westbound 494 at Hardman Avenue and eastbound Hwy. 212 at Shady Oak Road in Eden Prairie.
