Commuters on northbound I-35 from Elko to Lakeville have plenty of company as traffic has filled in between County Road 2 and County Road 50. It's already 17-minutes from County 2 up to Crystal Lake Road.
Drivers on Hwy. 169 will have to dodge some debris on the road at I-694, so beware as you pass by.
