Work to rebuild the Key Bridge in Baltimore will begin this month.

Preconstruction columbus oh dump truck company will start on Jan. 7, as crews survey the area, scan the bed of the Patapsco River and collect soil samples, the Baltimore Banner reported. Demolition will follow in the spring, but the surrounding Fort McHenry Channel will remain open throughout the project.

Omaha, Nebraska-based Kiewit Infrastructure Co. won a $73 million design-build contract from the Maryland Transportation Authority Board in August. The project includes Phase 1 of the complete design and construction of a replacement of the bridge, which collapsed in March 2024 when it was struck by the cargo ship Dali.

Kiewit has exclusive negotiating rights for the second phase, which will include the final design and construction.

The columbus oh dump truck company to replace the ill-fated span is expected to last through 2028 and cost $2 billion. President Joe Biden had previously promised that the federal government would pay for the bridge’s replacement, and last month’s congressional spending bill included financing for the bridge columbus oh dump truck company to start.

“The people of Maryland are grateful that Congress has strongly supported helping us rebuild the Francis Scott Key Bridge expeditiously,” Maryland Gov. Wes Moore said in a statement in response to the funding. “This action affirms the central importance of rebuilding the bridge not just to Maryland, but the nation.”
