Baltimore harbor entry point reinstated.

Following the bridge's collapse, - Baltimore harbor entry point reinstated.

Two weeks after a massive highway bridge in Baltimore fell, the harbor can now accommodate large ships again. The channel is now back to its regular size of 210 meters wide and 15 meters deep, as reported by those in charge. Before, only a small passage was available for commercial ships.

In late March, the ship "Dali" crashed into a support beam on the Francis Scott Key Bridge, leading to its collapse. The 2.5-kilometer-long, four-lane bridge fell victim to the incident. Salvage teams have since been working on clearing the waterway of rubble and removing the ship, which was partially hidden under the debris. The tragedy took a heavy toll, causing six deaths and significant economic damage to one of the United States' major seaports.

Over the past few months, around 50,000 tons of debris have been removed from the Patapsco River, as per authorities. Over 1,500 workers and 500 experts from around the globe joined forces to complete this task, utilizing barges, cranes, and excavators. "We can achieve amazing feats when we collaborate," remarked Maryland Governor Wes Moore. Nevertheless, the reconstruction of the Francis Scott Key Bridge remains incomplete.

The accident claimed the lives of six individuals - all of them Latin American construction workers carrying out repairs on the bridge at the time. The initial investigation showed that the ship's navigation might have been faulty due to a power outage. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has initiated an investigation into the incident.
