That bridge is the only way to bypass Baltimore if you are traveling north or south.
Not entirely true. It is a loop. You can go West instead of East on the loop to bypass Baltimore, but it will heavily increase traffic on an already-strained, construction-laden I-95 with only half of a loop to bypass. [Reply]

That's effective to a point. But you can have 15 redundant systems if there's no power there's no power. The NTSB report will be the thing to understand. [Reply]
Dashcam footage of driving over the Baltimore Bridge truly reveals the scale of what has collapsed, and collapsed so quickly and completely. pic.twitter.com/0RU9hMAsYN
