Highlights from the WSJ reporting - Baltimore Bridge Collapses After It Was Hit by Cargo Ship, Rescue Efforts Under Way U.S. Coast Guard officials said footage posted online indicates the vessel had some mechanical issues just before hitting the bridge. Lights on the vessel can be seen going dark, coming on, then going out again just before the vessel hit the support column. As many as 20 people and multiple cars likely fell in the water. The Francis Scott Key Bridge, that carries Interstate 695, was struck by a boxship at around 1:30 a.m. ET. The bridge is the entryway to the Helen Delich Bentley Port of Baltimore, the largest port in the U.S. for specialized cargo like trucks, tractors and trailers. It is also a gateway for bulk cargo like coal and petroleum products. Some 800,000 vehicles passed through the port in 2023, moving three million tons of cargo. The collapse will have ripple effects on the port's operations that could last for months. All vessel traffic in and out of the Port of Baltimore is suspended until further notice. The Singaporean containership, called the Dali, was on its way to Sri Lanka when it struck the bridge. It remained stuck under the bridge Tuesday morning with all crew still on board. The ship is operated by the Singapore-based Synergy Marine Group which said that the vessel had deployed its own emergency procedure and the crew was checking for casualties in the water. All of the crew are safe, the company added. Synergy said two pilots were on the bridge to steer the ship through the crossing. Pilots are active or former captains who work at ports and take over ships as they move in and out of ports. "The pilots take over the ship because they know the port's tight spots like the back of their hands," said Ioannis Sgouras, a veteran Greek captain who has sailed to Baltimore many times. Box ships heading to Baltimore are likely to divert north to the Port of New York and New Jersey, or south to the Port of Virginia, which process many more containers each year and should be able to pick up the slack. About 21,000 standard, 20-foot containers pass in and out of Baltimore each week, said a shipbroker. New York and New Jersey handle more than 10 times that volume. Specialized supply chains could experience more disruption. The port administration says Baltimore is the biggest port on the East Coast for handling "ro-ro," short for roll-on-roll off and encompassing cargoes of autos, trucks, tractors and wheeled cranes. Coal, liquefied-natural gas and waste paper have ranked among the top exports from the port in recent years, while vehicles, salt, gypsum and sugar have been the biggest imports. The main span of the bridge, which was built in 1977, is roughly 1,200 feet, making it one of the longest continuous trusses in the world. The bridge itself spans a total of 1.6 miles, but the overall structure including its approaches covers almost 11 miles. https://lnkd.in/euj8-89e
