The Panama Canal is an important link in global trade and its expansion, which will allow passage of much larger ships, and could have significant impacts on U.S. ports and inland infrastructure. This book describes ways that shipping patterns and industry costs could change when the Panama Canal expansion is complete, assesses the potential shifts in trade flows tied to the Panama Canal expansion and identifies potential markets that could be affected.
