The Port of Baltimore welcomed its first commercial containership on Sunday, April 28, since the suspension of vessel traffic following the Francis Scot Key Bridge collapse on March 26.
Namely, MSC’s 2,872 TEU Sub Panamax vessel, MSC Passion III, arrived at Ports America Chesapeake’s Seagirt Terminal via the newly opened 35-foot-deep alternative channel.
Approximately 1,000 containers were handled by around 80 workers from the International Longshoremen Association, the port authority said.
