Good morning, commuters!

We start Friday with light levels of traffic and a few places where overnight road work is still in progress.

In Bloomington, MnDOT crews are still working on westbound 494 at Nicollet Avenue. The left lane is closed on eastbound 494 at France Avenue. That should be out of there shortly.

A note on road work: The ramp from northbound 35W to eastbound 494 is closed until mid-August.

I'll be keeping an eye on the roads and rails this morning, reporting any delays or issues — and I will need your help.

If you see or hear about any congestion, delays or problems, e-mail drive@startribune or tweet @stribdrive.

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.
