Investigators Suspect Electrical Fault Led to Baltimore Bridge Strike while hunting for the cause of the accident; bridge’s design also investigated

NTSB investigators are looking at every possible factor in the incident…

 

Homendy said the electrical systems are examined and in fact manufacturers' representatives have flown out to examine the vessel's circuit breakers in particular.

“That is where our focus is right now in this investigation,” Homendy told the Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee. “Of course, that’s preliminary. It could take different roads, different paths as we continue this investigation. It’s very early.”

Homendy has also said that investigators are looking at the bridge's design and its protection from ship traffic.

“Are these bridges protected for the types of traffic that is going through now? . . . If I was a state and the Department of Transportation, that’s what I’d be looking at now," said Homendy.
