9 a.m. update: Hwy. 100 starting to loosen up

A wreck that had tangled traffic on southbound Hwy. 100 for nearly an hour has finally cleared. With the wreck at 50th Street now out of the way, things are loosening up. Plan on a few extra minutes until things return to normal.

A wreck that had tangled traffic on southbound Hwy. 100 for nearly an hour has finally cleared. With the wreck at 50th Street now out of the way, things are loosening up. Plan on a few extra minutes until things return to normal.

The crash on southbound 35W at County 88 also is gone, but delays remain. It's still 20 minutes from County Road I to Hwy. 280.

The State Patrol is still handling a wreck on eastbound Hwy. 212 at Shady Oak Road. That is not having much of an impact on traffic.

Heavy traffic remains on 494 in both directions from Hwy. 100 to Cedar Avenue. Give yourself about 15 minutes.

I-94 is moving well between the downtowns. Plan on 15 minutes to make that trip in either direction.

FILE -- A rent deposit slot at an apartment complex in Tucker, Ga., on July 21, 2020. As an eviction crisis has seemed increasingly likely this summer, everyone in the housing market has made the same plea to Washington: Send money — lots of it — that would keep renters in their homes and landlords afloat.
