Panama Canal wait times back to normal

Tuesday, December 1, 2015


Waiting times for ships at the Panama Canal have returned to normal after poor weather and a spike in traffic caused delays for several weeks, the waterway's operator said.

"Today ... the line is 45 ships, which represents a maximum waiting time of two days," the Panama Canal Authority said in a statement, noting that better weather and extra funding aimed at freeing up the traffic had reduced the bottleneck.
