The morning rush hour ends with congestion loosening on most major routes and dropping travel times.

A few places were congestion is still slowing the drive include:

Northbound 35W from Crosstown to downtown Minneapolis, 15 minutes
Northbound Hwy. 61 from 70th Street to I-94, 12 minutes
Westbound Hwy. 36 from Edgerton Street to 35W, 15 minutes
Southbound 35W from Hwy. 280 to downtown Minneapolis, 12 minutes

We are crash and incident free at this hour. Look for road work on westbound Hwy. 62 at Shady Oak Road where the ramp and shoulder are under repair.
