In the early morning of 26 March, the Dali, lost power and crashed into a bridge support, sending the span into the Patapsco River, with a major portion draped over the Dali's Bow.The detonations were meant to break the bridge's truss into small sections, enabling salvage crews to use cranes and barges to haul away the twisted metal wreckage, the US Army Corps of Engineers said.
Maryland officials estimate it will cost up to $1.9 billion to rebuild the bridge and anticipates completion by autumn 2028.Safety investigators recovered the ship's"black box" recorder, which provides data on its position, speed, heading, radar, and bridge audio and radio communications, as well as alarms.
