The Worlds Largest REVIT project to
date
Expanding the Panama Canal
It’s been
called one of the seven wonders of the modern world. A century after it first
opened, the Panama Canal continues to be a vital shortcut for global commerce –
but now, almost half the world’s cargo ships are too large to fit through it.
This year,
MHW Global’s redesign will change that.
