Report: Traffic Getting Worse In Minneapolis

(Minneapolis, MN)  —  Traffic is getting worse in the Twin Cities.  A new report by INRIX found drivers in Minneapolis spent 26 hours in traffic in 2022.  That’s up nearly 50-percent from 2021.  Anne Meyer with the Department of Transportation  told KARE 11 that’s no surprise considering many people returned to in-person work last year.  Meyer also said traffic patterns have become less predictable since the pandemic began.  She said the mornings aren’t as congested, but traffic picks up in the afternoon and peak hours seem to vary everyday.
