The Francis Scott Key Bridge is a partially collapsed bridge located in the Baltimore metropolitan area, Maryland. It was opened in 1977 and collapsed on March 26, 2024, after a container ship struck one of its piers. The bridge carried the Baltimore Beltway (Interstate 695 or I-695) and was operated by the Maryland Transportation Authority (MDTA). It was the second-longest bridge in the Baltimore metropolitan area and carried an estimated 11.5 million vehicles annually. The construction of the bridge was several years behind schedule and $33 million over budget.learn more on wikipedia
