8 a.m. update: Current drive times

We have just enough congestion and a smattering of wrecks on the system to make the Monday drive enough to ratchet up the agitation meter.

You'll find backups due to crashes on eastbound Crosstown at France Avenue and on westbound Hwy. 36 at Lexington Avenue.

It's a car fire on northbound Hwy. 169 at County 282 in Jordan that is creating commotion.

And road work has the ramps from westbound 94 to Snelling Avenue and Snelling to eastbound 94 closed. Look out for lane restrictions on eastbound 94 at Ruth Street and southbound 35W at 94th Street.
