Quinn Patterson used to have a 25-minute commute to and from work. Now, it takes as much as two hours. "I could do the drive with my eyes closed probably, but I see which route is the quickest, and sometimes, it's not the tunnels," Patterson told 11 News. "There are times where I quite literally put my car in park." And she's not alone. She's one of thousands of people whose commute instantly got longer after the collapse of Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge on March 26, 2024. A recent Johns Hopkins University survey revealed more than 60% of respondents who live within 3 miles of the collapsed bridge said it still affects their daily lives. What's more, vehicles carrying hazardous or explosive materials are prohibited from traveling the Baltimore harbor tunnels. So, those vehicles are often on the Baltimore Beltway, along with ongoing construction.
