Choose camera by route and pick I-895 North to South.
It's not too bad right now, but I imagine things will clog up. I'd bet many stayed home today.

Yep. It was already horrible traffic wise.
All the trucks hauling hazardous materials will have to go all the way around the west side of the beltway, as they're not permitted in the tunnels.

Ironically, my new apartment features a nice view of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge, from the designated bbq area.

I remember when the old 895 Harbor Tunnel was the only way north past Baltimore. The bridge opened in 77 and the rt 95 Fort McHenry tunnels didn't open till 1985.

Sounds like you live in a nice place.
Shipping companies are supposedly scrambling to sort out the logistics. The bridge must have accommodated ground transport for alot of the shipping containers.

if the bridge debris is blocking the shipping lanes in and out of Baltimore, it will also cause a severe problem.

I use a free app that's called "Trucker pass" for traffic GPS. Traffic hasn't been as disrupted as you might think. Definitely for those close by, but elsewhere not so much.
https://www.wbaltv.com/article/baltimor ... t/60410241Officials have established a temporary, alternate channel for vessels involved in clearing debris. In a preliminary timeline released Thursday by the Army Corps of Engineers, officials hope to open a limited-access channel for barge container ships and some vessels moving cars and farm equipment by the end of this month and to restore normal capacity to Baltimore's port by May 31, the White House says.
A look at the Key Bridge salvage efforts from today. Crews began removing shipping containers from the DALI to gain access to the portion of the bridge on top of the vessel. This will continue over the next few days (weather permitting).
