Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge collapsed early Tuesday after a column was hit by a large container ship, sending vehicles and people into the Patapsco River.
The traffic effects will be felt from Philadelphia to DC, so I imagine the feds will jump on this pretty quick. I think the biggest problem is that it’s a major bridge and the channel for a major port. Building a bridge without getting in the way of the shipping traffic is going to be complicated.
I mean, you’re not wrong.
IIRC the hospitals are not spread out in ideal locations for this scenario.

Shows what I know about Baltimore. How interesting.
And I’m positive there will be extensive containership proofing upgrades that will complicate the build further.
