US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg is set to visit Baltimore today, as confirmed by a staff member from the agency. This visit comes in the wake of the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge, a critical transportation artery in the region.
Buttigieg recently engaged in discussions with Maryland Governor Wes Moore and Baltimore Mayor Brandon M. Scott to assess the situation and coordinate response efforts. In a statement, Buttigieg emphasized the ongoing rescue operations and urged drivers in the Baltimore area to adhere to guidance provided by local responders regarding detours and alternate routes.
