Northbound Hwy. 169 is holding up pretty well despite the new closure at I-494. The highway is closed north of 494 up to Bren Road until October for a resurfacing project. A new overpass is being constructed at the Crosstown. Southbound lanes reopened this morning.

Look for traffic to bunch up between Hwy. 241 and Hwy. 101 and intermittent delays from Hwy. 101 to Weaver Lake Road on eastbound 94. A crash on the westbound lanes at 101st Avenue is attracting some attention from eastbound drivers.

Our other hot spot is westbound 694 at Hwy. 61. A crash is off on the right shoulder.
