Description
A year after the catastrophic collapse of Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge, Maryland leaders are honoring the six construction workers who were killed that night when the road they were repairing buckled underneath them.
“Ever since that moment, we’ve done everything in that vein to remember, first, those people that we lost,” Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott said after a ceremony commemorating the anniversary. “That’s what today is about.”
While police were able to stop traffic in the moments before a massive cargo ship plowed into the bridge, they didn’t have time to alert the overnight roadwork crew.
