A new plan affords recreational vessels the opportunity for transit through the Key Bridge Response Safety Zone.

Recovery operations continue at the Key Bridge site, with Unified Command leading efforts to remove containers from the Dali ship and clear the wreckage. As of Wednesday, efforts have focused on gaining access to the affected section of the bridge that currently rests atop the boat.

According to Unified Command, extracting containers from the M/V Dali is integral to gaining access to parts of the Key Bridge currently resting on the ship.

On Saturday evening, the Unified Command noted it removed a substantial segment of Span 19, weighing 156 tons.

The U.S. Coast Guard has established a safety zone in the Chesapeake Bay, encompassing all navigable waters within a 2,000-yard radius of the Francis Scott Key Bridge following its collision with the Singapore-flagged vessel DALI on March 26.
