Second Channel Opened Allowing Some Vessels to Bypass Wreckage at the Baltimore Bridge Collapse Site
Crews have opened a second temporary channel allowing limited marine traffic to bypass the wreckage of Baltimore’s collapsed Francis Scott Key Bridge, which is blocking the vital port’s main shipping channel.
As divers assisted crews with the complicated and meticulous operation of removing the steel and concrete from the fallen Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, some near the site took time on Easter Sunday to reflect on the six workers presumed to have plunged to their deaths.
The cargo ship that lost power and crashed into a bridge in Baltimore underwent “routine engine maintenance” in port beforehand, the U.S. Coast Guard said Wednesday
Within about 90 seconds, police officers responded that they had managed to stop vehicle traffic over the Baltimore bridge in both directions.
