NORFOLK, Va. — The cargo ship that crashed into Baltimore's Key Bridge on March 26 will soon come to Norfolk for repairs.
The "Dali" is still in Baltimore — roughly two months after the bridge collapse. It was moved back to port to undergo repairs on Monday.

Eventually, the ship will be moved to Norfolk for more extensive work, according to Darrell Wilson, a spokesperson for Synergy Marine.
Wilson says he's unsure when Dali will come to Norfolk, as it depends on when crews in Baltimore finish removing the remaining debris.
WMAR reports that crews removed all of the wreckage dangling off the side of the ship in order to get it refloated and removed from the channel. However, there's still plenty of debris on the bow of the Dali, including a piece of the roadway.

The U.S. Coast Guard predicts it will be weeks before the Dali is ready to come down to Norfolk, WMAR reports.
"So the Dali will remain at berth [in Baltimore] for at least five or so weeks while they remove the wreckage that is in front of her and [while] they remove some of the damaged containers," said U.S. Coast Guard Captain David O'Connell. "There will be a long-term plan to do some temporary repairs to the ship so that the ship can sail out of here safely."
We'll provide updates on the Dali's movements.
