"Baltimore Bridge Collapse Recovery Efforts Underway Amid Uncertain Timeline"

The cleanup of the collapsed Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore has begun, with the bodies of two construction workers recovered and a search ongoing for four others, for which no timeline has been given due to the complexity of the operation. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is leading an "unprecedented" cleanup operation, with insurance costs expected to drive up the total price tag of the disaster, potentially reaching as high as $4 billion in insurance claims. Governor Moore emphasized the need for bipartisan support to fund the rebuild, as President Biden has promised federal funding, while the bridge crash is being called the largest-ever marine insured loss.
