No promises on what this afternoon will bring on 694 in the work zone between East River Road and Hwy. 100, but this morning was a breeze for commuters.
Yesterday we saw a big backup on northbound Hwy. 100 due to a lane reduction at Humboldt Avenue and those on eastbound 694. Be ready for that.
This morning, we end with a few spots where traffic is tight and moving below the posted speeds:
Southbound 35W from Industrial Blvd. to I-94.
Southbound 494 from Bass Lake Road to County Road 6.
I-494 both directions from Hwy. 100 to Cedar Avenue.
Northbound 35W from Burnsville Pkwy. to 90th Street.
Westbound 94 from Riverside Avenue to the Lowry Hill Tunnel.
