"Baltimore Bridge Collapse: Second Channel Opens for Vessels to Bypass Wreckage"

A second temporary channel has been opened to allow limited marine traffic to bypass the wreckage of Baltimore’s collapsed Francis Scott Key Bridge, with work ongoing to open a third channel for larger vessels. Rough weather conditions have hindered efforts to recover the bodies of the four construction workers believed trapped underwater, while businesses in the area are seeking assistance due to economic disruptions caused by the collapse. Efforts to remove steel and concrete at the collapse site are underway, and President Joe Biden is expected to visit the site to meet with state and local officials.
