Ouch! Traffic Snarls, Crawls, Creeps on I-35 through Lakeville

Traffic wasn't pretty on I-35 in Lakeville Friday afternoon. 

Another road construction project started up at 10 a.m. Friday, limiting northbound motorists to one lane from County Road 50 to the I-35/35W/35E split. That work is set to end by 5 a.m. Monday. 

But that's on top of road work continuing into November that has both directions down to one lane between County Road 2 and County Road 70. 

On Friday afternoon, a crash on I-35 near 185th Street complicated the traffic situation further. 

Sign up for the project’s email updates or get more information at MnDOT's project website.
