The five-member National Transportation Safety Board voted on Tuesday in favor of the findings that identified a loose wire as the probable cause of a cargo ship’s collision with the Baltimore bridge that collapsed as a result last year.
Tuesday’s hearing came nearly 20 months after the 984-foot-long container ship Dali struck the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore. Six of seven construction workers who were on the bridge died in the morning of March 26, 2024.
