For example, the two entities will collaborate on joint training programs, promotion of the route from Europe to the West Coast of South America via the Panama Canal and the exchange of data regarding types of commodities, cargo tonnage, and liner services.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This new partnership will continue to strengthen our alliances in Europe and deepen Panama-Spain relations. Both our nations are committed to providing our business communities with the tools they need to achieve economic growth and sustainable development,&#8221; said Mr. Alem\u00e1n Zubieta.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are both leading institutions in two logistics hubs of the world. Without a doubt, the collaboration between our entities, as underscored in this agreement, will increase the value of our relationship and will reinforce the commercial relationship between our two business communities,&#8221; said Mr. Hormaechea.<\/p>\n<p>The Port of Algeciras is located on the Spanish border of the Bay of Gibraltar. Algeciras is Spain&#8217;s number one port, with annual transits of more than 70 million tons and 3 million TEUs.<\/p>\n<p>Algeciras also has a maritime bridge with Morocco, with hourly departures headed to the Port of Tangier-Mediterranean. This route is used by 200,000 trucks a year carrying goods for import and export into both ports.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, the ACP is undergoing a historic expansion of the Canal. The waterway&#8217;s expansion project will build a new lane of traffic through the construction of a new set of locks, which will double Canal capacity and allow the passage of longer and wider ships. Overall, expansion is estimated at $5.25 billion, with completion anticipated in 2014.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Panama Canal Authority (ACP)<\/strong><br \/>\nThe ACP is the autonomous agency of the Government of Panama in charge of managing, operating and maintaining the Panama Canal.
