Commuters on northbound Hwy. 61 are navigating around three crashes in the Cottage Grove area. They are at Chemolite Road, Jamaica Avenue and between 80th and 70th Street.

Other recent crashes include northbound Hwy. 169 at County 81 in Brooklyn Park. A vehicle spun out and smacked the concrete median.

Look for a pocket of slow traffic on southbound 35E due to a crash at Wheelock Pkwy. in St. Paul.

Be ready to hit the brakes on southbound 35W because of a stall blocking the right shoulder at 73rd Street in Richfield.
