The good news for those stuck in a four-mile backup on eastbound 94 in Albertville is that the crash ahead at Hwy. 241 has been cleared.
All lanes are back open. It will take a while for traffic to recover. The jam up begins at County Road 19 west of Albertville. Ahead, things flow quite well from Hwy. 101 to the Fish Lake Split.
