Drive times on northbound 35W are dropping now that crash at Cliff Road has cleared. The trip from County Road 42 to downtown Minneapolis is now under 25 minutes, but expect some slow stuff from Hwy. 13 up to 94th Street.

I-494 in both directions sputters between 394 and Minnetonka Blvd. At least the medical emergency on northbound 494 at Orchard Road has cleared.

Westbound 94 bunches up at Johnson Pkwy. and speeds remain below the posted over to Dale Street.

Southbound 35E goes sour from Hwy. 36 to University Avenue, so plan on a few extra minutes there.

Otherwise, we are crash free for the moment and no major delays to speak of.
