Francis Scott Key Bridge, Truss bridge in Baltimore, United States.
The Francis Scott Key Bridge extends 2,632 meters across the Patapsco River, connecting Baltimore City with the Dundalk district through four traffic lanes.
Construction of the bridge started in August 1972 and required an investment of 141 million dollars before its completion in March 1977.
The bridge received recognition from the American Institute of Steel Construction in 1978 for its engineering design and structural achievements.
Maryland Transportation Authority manages this toll bridge, which served approximately 11.5 million vehicles annually until its collapse in March 2024.
The structure collapsed when the container ship Dali struck a support pier, leading to a reconstruction plan estimated at 1.7 billion dollars.
