kilometers and avoids the need for ships to sail around Cape Horn at the bottom of South AmericaBuilt from 1904 to 1914the canal has seen annual traffic rise from about 1,000 ships early on to 14,702 ships in 2008In total, over 815,000 ships have passed through the canalIt has been named one of the seven modern wonders of the worldMore than forty ships pass through the canal each dayNow, a major expansion project will permit more ships and bigger ships to pass through the canalJorge Quijano, the Panama Canals executive vice president, of engineering, says, The present canal has a total capacity（容量） of about 340 million tons a yearWith the expansion we expect to double thatFor years, shipbuilders limited the size of many ships so that they could pass through the Panama CanalBut now

new locks（船闸） alongside the old ones, which will remain in useThe existing locks are 305 meters long and 335 meters wideThe new ones will be 427 meters long and 55 meters wideThey will be able to handle ships with drafts（吃水量） of more than 15 metersAt present, ships can ride only 12 meters deep in the canalEngineers could not make the new locks too bigMrQuijano says the plans have to balance
