This is the time of the morning when traffic volumes increase on eastbound Hwy. 212 through Chaska and Eden Prairie. Today's trek into town is taking a bit longer due to a crash at Eden Prairie Road. Be ready to hit the brakes at Hwy. 101.
Adding to the issue is an impatient driver that is cutting in and out of traffic in the area.
