Baltimore's Key Bridge Was Supposed to Cost $1.7 Billion — Now It's $5.2 Billion

The replacement for the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore was expected to become one of America's most important infrastructure projects. Instead, the estimated cost has surged to nearly $5 billion, engineers are raising concerns, and despite the urgency, construction has yet to begin. In this documentary, we examine what happened after the Baltimore bridge collapse, why the replacement project has become so expensive, and the engineering, political, and financial challenges delaying one of the largest bridge megaprojects in the United States. We also explore the impact on the Port of Baltimore, shipping, taxpayers, and the future of American infrastructure. Thank you for watching: The $5BN Bridge Collapse America Should Have Prevented #Megaprojects #Engineering #Infrastructure With great passion for mega constructions I created this channel. With extensive and detailed research as well as impressive video editing, I want to make the most fascinating mega constructions worldwide accessible to you - for all those who are just as enthusiastic about constructions.
