"Baltimore Bridge Collapse: Cranes Begin Wreckage Removal as Wife of Victim Remains Missing"

Cranes have arrived at the site of the collapsed Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore to begin clearing wreckage, allowing for the search of four missing workers and the reopening of the city's port. The salvage operation will involve multiple heavy lift cranes, divers, and other vessels to remove the twisted metal and concrete remnants from the bridge and the cargo ship that collided with it. The bridge collapse has disrupted port operations, affecting thousands of dockworkers, commuters, and U.S. consumers, with potential shipping delays and job losses for dockworkers.
