The transfer of containers from the Dali will continue in the coming days, as weather permits.<\/p>\n The removal of the containers is a critical step required to safely move the Dali and eventually fully re-open the Fort McHenry Channel. Removing containers allows for safe access to then remove the pieces of the Key Bridge that lie across the ship\u2019s bow, taking weight off the ship and ultimately allowing for the movement of the ship.<\/p>\n In parallel, wreckage and debris removal continued at the site, including portions of Span 19 that were taken to Sparrows Point, Maryland. While marine traffic is still limited, one vessel has transited through in the last 24 hours, totaling 32 since the creation of the temporary alternate channels.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Unified Command is concurrently progressing on its main lines of effort to remove enough debris to open the channel to larger commercial traffic, refloat the M\/V Dali and continue recovery efforts for missing loved ones,\u201d said Coast Guard Capt. David O\u2019Connell, federal on-scene coordinator, Unified Command. \u201cEvery day we are working to achieve these goals safely and efficiently.\u201d \u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n maritime professional<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" April 7, 2024 Source: Keybridgeresponse2024 The Unified Command began to remove containers onboard M\/V Dali at the Key Bridge incident site, Sunday. \u00a0 Salvors removed containers from the Dali as part of the effort to gain access to the portion of the Key Bridge that lies atop the ship.
