Description:
The demolition of the Francis Scott Key Bridge wreckage in Baltimore, initially planned for Sunday after a freighter collision in March, was postponed to Monday due to nearby lightning. The explosives will make precision cuts to split large sections of the bridge truss, allowing cranes to remove parts and clear the freighter from the channel. The demolition is aimed to safely and efficiently continue clearing the channel for the Port of Baltimore. The freighter has been stuck since the March 26th crash, which also killed 6 construction workers on the bridge.

The Dali has been stuck since March 26th when it crashed into a support column under the bridge, killing 6 construction workers. Freeing the ship will ultimately allow it to be refloated and moved, restoring traffic to Baltimore's busy port and relieving thousands of dockworkers, truckers, and business owners. Officials said the detonation went as planned, and crews will now assess any remaining debris before refloating the Dali in the next few days.")
