Relief will be slow in coming, but all lanes on northbound I-35W at 7th Street are back open. A truck lost is load about 6:30 a.m. and the right two lanes were blocked.
Traffic is jammed back to Diamond Lake Road, so still plan on more than 30 to 35 minutes from Crosstown to downtown Minneapolis.
Tim Harlow covers traffic and transportation issues in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area, and likes to get out of the office, even during rush hour. He also covers the suburbs in northern Hennepin and all of Anoka counties, plus breaking news and weather.
