Panama Canal Expansion to Enhance Panama's Connectivity

The Panama Canal Expansion Project will maximize Panama’s strategic location as an international maritime hub at the center of global trade.

This project will double the capacity of the Panama Canal by 2015 by creating a new lane of traffic and allowing more and larger ships to transit.

Panama’s connectivity has been enhanced by ports at both oceans, an air transportation hub with connections to more than 30 destinations in 20 countries of the continent, an interoceanic railroad, a telecommunications network with the latest technology, and a financial and commercial services center of international quality.
