Fuel suppliers in Baltimore will face some trucking delays and other minor logistical issues after the collapse of a major bridge earlier this week shut the city's port indefinitely, market participants said on Wednesday. A cargo ship smashed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge on Tuesday, causing parts of the bridge to collapse into shipping lanes at the mouth of the Port of Baltimore, and putting one of the busiest ports on the U.S. East Coast out of service. The bridge's collapse adds delays to fuel deliveries that will last several months, as fuel trucks that earlier used the bridge will now have to drive farther to deliver their loads, fuel supplier Mansfield said on Tuesday.
