Crews are working to clear a crash on the ramp from eastbound I-94 to northbound 35W. One of the vehicles spun out and is facing sideways making the chore a bit more difficult.

Expect heavy congestion on northbound 35W from 50th Street to downtown, making for a 20-minute drive.

On eastbound 94, traffic is stacked up back to near 7th Street. On eastbound 394, it's packed from Wirth Pkwy. all the way into downtown Minneapolis.

On southbound 35W, look for the gwaker slowdown beginning at Washington Avenue.

Elsewhere on the system, maps are showing green meaning traffic is flowing freely.
