Most roads have returned to normal, but we do have a few slow spots that will add time to the drive.

Those are on southbound 35W from Industrial Blvd. to downtown Minneapolis. That is 10 to 12 minutes due to an earlier crash at Park Avenue.

Crosstown westbound is still sluggish from 35W to Hwy. 100. A crash at Valley View is making that a 10 minute trip.

Westbound 494 is still 15 minutes from Hwy. 5 over to Hwy. 100.

Northbound Hwy. 169 remains closed from Hwy. 55 to I-94. Contractors ran into some unexpected hassles while resurfacing over the weekend. The road will likely reopen this afternoon.

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.

It’s too soon to tell how much the immigration crackdown is to blame.
