epa11287106 The wreckage of the Francis Scott Key Bridge is seen atop the cargo vessel Dali in the Patapsco River as cleanup work continues to deconstruct and take away debris, in Baltimore, Maryland, USA, 18 April 2024. Authorities are aiming for a limited access channel to be open by the end of April to allow passage of car carriers, cruise ships and small container ships; and by the end of May for the Dali to be removed and the fifty-foot channel to be cleared and the Port of Baltimore to fully reopen. The cargo vessel Dali struck the bridge on 26 March 2024, forcing the closure of the Port of Baltimore. EPA-EFE/MICHAEL REYNOLDS
