While addressing the response effort to the collapse, President Biden stressed the importance of the bridge that was used by tens of thousands of people each day to cross the Patapsco River.
“It’s my intention that the federal government will pay for the entire costs of reconstructing that bridge,” Biden said. “I expect Congress to support my effort — this is going to take some time.”
Meanwhile, all traffic has been halted at the Port of Baltimore following the collapse. However, Biden promised Gov. Wes Moore, D-Md., that he will “move heaven and earth” to reopen the port as soon as possible.
According to officials, the ship’s crew was able to issue a mayday call before it hit the bridge’s column, allowing officials to stop traffic.
Vehicles could be seen on the bridge at the time of the collapse. However, officials have not said if anyone occupied the vehicles seen falling into the river in infrared video.
