Francis Scott Key Bridge Rebuild Phase 2

planned

The Maryland Transportation Authority (MDTA) is seeking a new contractor for the next phase (Phase 2) of the Francis Scott Key Bridge reconstruction after the current contractor's proposal was deemed too costly. The current contractor, Kiewit Infrastructure Co., will continue with Phase 1 responsibilities including design work, foundation pile driving, and construction of a temporary trestle through at least the end of the year. The state plans to open a new procurement process for Phase 2 construction, with an industry forum scheduled for May to outline next steps and attract competitive bids.
