Key Bridge Rebuild

under construction

The Key Bridge in Baltimore is undergoing a rebuild after being damaged by a cargo ship collision. The project is considered a national asset due to its importance to the Port of Baltimore and national shipping routes. The rebuild is projected to cost between $1.7 billion and $1.9 billion, with a completion timeline set for fall 2028. Funding for the project has been approved by Congress on a bipartisan basis, but there is uncertainty due to threats from President Trump to withdraw federal funding. Maryland state leaders are discussing the possibility of the state funding the rebuild if federal funds are withdrawn.
