An earlier crash on westbound 694 has created a huge traffic jam that persists. Traffic is hardly moving from Long Lake Road over to East River Road. That is at least 10 minutes.

Authorities are still attendting to a broken down Metro Transit bus sitting on the right shoulder of eastbound 394 at Louisiana Avenue.

The State Patrol just picked up the pedestrians walking along northbound Hwy. 169 at 36th Avenue. Good they will be safe.

We have a crash on westbound Hwy. 36 at 35W. That' affecting traffic both on southbound 35W and westbound Hwy. 36
