Commuters on southbound Hwy. 65 through Blaine are spending extra time in their vehicles. A road construction project was extened north to County Road 10 and lane restrictions kick in at 93rd Avenue. That's got traffic cramming up from 105th Avenue.
Road work also has a lane out of commission on southbound 35E/westbound 694 in Little Canada. That's got traffic at a slow roll through the commons, and continuing on southbound 35E into downtown St. Paul.
Also, a vehicle fire is producing some heavy smoke on southbound 35E at Larpenteur Avenue.
