The largest infrastructure project since the waterway’s original construction, the Panama Canal Expansion Program has created a new lane of traffic along the Canal through the construction of a new set of locks, doubling the waterway’s capacity. The new locks have three chambers, water-saving basins, lateral filling and emptying system & rolling gates. Since the inauguration of the expanded Panama Canal, customers have taken advantage of the many benefits that the expanded waterway has to offer.
