Look for a wreck on the right shoulder at Lyndale Avenue. It's 15 minutes over to Hwy. 100.

Southbound 494 is heavy from Bass Lake Road down to 394.

Eastbound 394 slows from Hwy. 169 over to 94 in Minneapolis. Plan on 10 minutes.

A new fender bender is on the ramp from southbound 35W to Hiawatha Avenue.

Give yourself a few extra minutes on westbound 694 due to a crash at Rice Street.
