The Gaillard, or Culebra Cut once restricted traffic in the Panama Canal to "one way". It remained that way for about 50 years. In the ī60s it was widened to allow two way traffic. I was told that the geologic structure of the area is unstable, hence difficult to alter. The steam bucket dredge in the picture may well be from the era when the canal opened.
