Outside of a few pockets of congestion on southbound 35W between Hwy. 10 and 694 and westbound 494 from Cedar Avenue to 35w, things are moving along swiftly.
There is one incident on the system. A fender bender is off to the right shoulder on eastbound 494 at Hwy. 5. That's having a minimal impact on traffic.
