  • Panama Canal to cut daily transits because of drought

    The Panama Canal will reduce allowed daily vessel transits from 38 to 34 starting September 3 and to 32 starting September 15, and will impose new draught restrictions, citing falling water levels linked to El Niño. The canal authority reported rainfall since May at 34% below the historical average and inflows to the basin down 44%. The source notes around 5% of world maritime traffic passes through the canal.
