पनामा मेट्रो लाइन 3
Panama Metro Line 3 is a 34km-long monorail line being developed as part of the Panama metro project. It will be the largest project in the country since the expansion of the Panama Canal.
The line will establish a connection between the province of Panama Oeste and the province of Panama, reducing the average travel time by half, from 90 minutes to 45 minutes. The monorail system will be the first to use Japanese technology in the Americas.
Dextra supplied 260,000 बार्टेक couplers for the elevated monorail structure’s piling column and precast beam connection.
सोनीटेक tubes were also used to examine the concrete integrity of bore-piles using the crosshole sonic logging testing method.
Expected to begin operations in mid-2025, the line will benefit more than 500,000 residents of the Panama Oeste province.
