Drivers in the north metro continue to face major delays even though earlier crashes have cleared or have been moved off to the shoulder.

It's still nearly a 30-minute commute on southbound Hwy. 100 from 694 to 394, and another 15 down to Hwy. 7.

Traffic is tight on southbound 494 from 94 to 394, southbound 169 from 94 to 394, and 35W southbound from 95th Avenue to Hwy. 280.

In the south metro, 494 is quite busy in both directions between Cedar Avenue and Hwy. 100.

A lingering fender bender at Hwy. 100 and 62 is slowing traffic on westbound 62 from 169 to Penn Avenue.

You'll experience congestion on northbound 35W from 46th Street to downtown Minneapolis. It's tight on 494 at the intersection of Hwy. 61 in Newport.

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.
