Baltimore bridge collapse spurs supply-chain uncertainty

BBC World Service - Business Matters, Baltimore bridge collapse spurs supply-chain uncertainty

Businesses look at options after accident causes disruption in a busy shipping lane in Baltimore.

Rahul Tandon is joined by a reporter in Baltimore to assess the economic impact of the accident.. The port near the bridge is the largest in the US for specialised cargo.
