The Francis Scott Key bridge rebuild that began this year is not only a costly venture but one that revealed the need for skilled trade workers. A new opportunity born out of the 2024 tragedy is now putting $1.5 million local investment to close that gap, through a new training center and financial assistance for Marylanders pursuing a trade education. Ground is expected to be broken in late 2026 for a new 12,000 sq. ft. welding training center in the footprint of the bridge, at the Community College of Baltimore County’s Dundalk campus. #welders #jobtraining #ccbcdundalk #news #maryland
