Live on WTOP: Maryland Gov. Wes Moore discusses Baltimore Key Bridge recovery efforts
Tuesday marks one week since tragedy forever changed the landscape in Baltimore and Maryland.
In the overnight hours last Tuesday, a huge container ship hit the Key Bridge causing most of it to fall like a deck of cards into the Patapsco River.
Six construction workers were killed in the collapse. Two bodies have been recovered — and four bodies are still trapped in the wreckage in the middle of the water.
The price tag for the recovery and to eventually rebuild the Key Bridge will likely be near $1 billion.
Maryland Gov. Wes Moore joined WTOP live from Dundalk, Maryland, to discuss the recovery efforts.
Listen to the full interview below. A transcript will be posted later.
