500 Thousand Dollars Save 13000 Kilometers, History of Panama Canal Construction

The Panama Canal is named for its geographic location in Panama. Initial construction was begun by the French in the late 19th century, but failed. The United States took over the project and completed it on August 15, 1914. To accommodate larger ships, an expansion project began in 2007 and was completed on June 26, 2016. This expansion, known as the Panama Canal Expansion, increased the canal s capacity and allowed giant container ships to pass through, making it one of the world s most important shipping lanes. 1. panama canal expansion process The Panama Canal web: instagram: twitter: linkedin: youtube: email: CH2M twitter: x. com, ch2m youtube: For copyright matters please contact us at: Disclaimer: infoKU is not affiliated with the businesses whose products are shown in this review.
