Panama Canal Expansion: Safety against vessel impact

Panama Canal expansion started in 2007, finalisation in 2014. New larger locks on both sides of the channel

How to protect the locks (and thus the water in the lake/ canal) against vessel impact?

Identification of the risks and presentation of 3 possible mitigation measures:

- Operational measures

- Safety gate

- Emergency gate
