Panama Bay is beginning to be filled in for road expansion of Balboa Ave

By The Panama Gringo | February 6, 2008


176The expansion of Avenue Balboa is underway with the proceeds of the canal expansion being used to fill in some of the low tide parts of Panama Bay. 

The plan is to widen Avenue Balboa to relieve some of the crushing traffic flow and to install a beautiful public park.

Panama is definitely a country in expansion mode and although the government is struggling to keep up with the rapid growth, they are doing a decent job with planning and implementation of public works.  Every time I come back to the States from Panama, I have an even deeper respect for this wonderful central American country.

Here is a link to a map that fully describes the expansion.
