95 miles NW of Quitaque, TX | And the cost has risen from $1.7B to $4-5B. Someone slightly underestimated the cost to rebuild the bridge and the federal government is going to repay most of the cost to rebuilt the bridge.
The estimated cost to rebuild the Francis Scott Key Bridge is between $4.3 billion and $5.2 billion, according to the Maryland Transportation Authority. This is more than double the initial estimate of under $2 billion and includes higher material and construction costs, as well as a new pier protection system. The project is now expected to be completed in late 2030.
Current estimate: $4.3 billion to $5.2 billion
Initial estimate: ~$1.7 billion to $1.9 billion
Factors for the increase: Higher material and construction costs, and the inclusion of a more robust pier protection system.
Projected completion: Late 2030
