Francis Scott Key Bridge Rebuild

under construction

The project involves rebuilding the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, Maryland. The redesigned bridge will feature a 1,665-foot main span to accommodate larger commercial vessels and meet updated national engineering standards. It includes a robust federally mandated pier protection system to prevent future ship strikes. The project cost has increased due to rising material costs and advanced engineering requirements, with an estimated cost between $4.3 billion and $5.2 billion. The opening of the new bridge is delayed to late 2030.
