  • Unified Command salvage crews have successfully removed the final large steel truss segment blocking the Fort McHenry Federal Channel on June 3-4.
    The crews used concrete breakers, underwater surveys, and oxyacetylene torches to separate tons of concrete roadway, cable, and steel rebar from “Section 4C” while removing debris with clamshell dredges, according to Unified Command.

    Sketchy stuff cutting rebar with all that tangle of roadway balanced above your heads. Dangerous work. Just like when they cut the bridge trusses in half when they get to Sparrows Point. With the last cut the sections could go anywhere! You have to trust your colleagues. Hats off to you guys.

      That's just you thinking that, certainly not the engineers who will design and build a new bridge. Would you rebuild an old car without putting on new tires? If you crossed it every day would you want them to use the 40+ year old foundational supports?

    The bridge did not collapse, it was knocked down by a ship that was trying to burn bunkering fuel inside U.S. territorial waters trying to save money. The fuel swap killed the engine causing the ship to knock down the bridge. The ships engineer must be arrested for violating U.S. territorial E.P.A. LAWS.

      I think it reflects that the US needs to catch up on infrastructure investment. It used to lead the world during the time when it built its national highway system - for example. If you now compare the state of its harbour or airport infrastructure to many Asian cities - the gap is huge!
