During Wednesday's White House press briefing, U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg provided an update on the recovery efforts following the Baltimore bridge collapse. The Department of Transportation is actively working to reopen the Port of Baltimore, address supply chain challenges, rebuild the bridge, and manage transportation reroutes during the restoration process.
Secretary Buttigieg emphasized that the rebuilding process will be a significant undertaking, acknowledging that it will require time, resources, and effort. However, he expressed confidence in the government's ability to complete the task successfully.
