It can be done for less money and in less time if the government minimizes its involvement.

To be fair - it will take days at least, perhaps a few weeks, to assess the situation and determine the safest and most effective way to clear the wreckage. I despise Booty-Judge, but his statement here, while non-informative, is correct.
Even a stopped clock...

Port opens right after all the insurance companies finish suing each other and some one allocates funds from somewhere to begin removal and clean up. Several years later, bridge construction might begin.

Exactly. I used to be an engineer (have a few degrees). They have to determine how tangled the metal is, what impediments might be in the way, do the pieces have to be cut up, and a lot of other things. Giving an estimate on a time frame now would be speculation at best.

They can drag the stuff out of the way.....until the tugs are in place and ready to be loaded...and then dredge the channel for loose ends.Our Military are the only folks who can do this in a timely manner.
To: Sacajaweau
US military does not have the heavy lift (1,000 ton and more) floating cranes needed. Only some salvage companies have the needed cranes; they are likely working jobs somewhere in the world, not in the US & would have to make a sea voyage to begin.

Is this a federal issue? Didn’t it happen on a city/state road?

(2024 is going to be one for the history books, like 1939. And 2025 will be more so, like 1940-1945.)

Oh to add: A rescue diver friend of mine told me visibility is about nil in those waters. Another complication...

My understanding is because it involves a major waterway the feds have jurisdiction, too. Also falls under the Commerce Clause.

There may be some offshore oil companies down south that could handle it pretty well, but Baltimore couldn’t afford them. Hopefully it won’t be a full on clown show, but that’s what I’m expecting. Look at the clown that was the basis of this thread.

It will be interesting to see what they do in the short term. My uneducated guess is that they cut in to smaller pieces that can be partially floated and drag the pieces of the bridge away from the channel.
This advice is free by the way. Worth much more for sure.
