$660 million will be invested to extend Line 2 up to El Dorado mall and extend by 2.2 kilometers Line 1 to Villa Zaíta, in the town of Las Cumbres.

Among the advances made by Metro de Panama since the intention to extend the lines was announced in January 2016 is the preliminary design of the extension of Line 1 by 2.2 kilometers and “… preliminary analysis of the environmental impact study.”

“… In addition to this project, those responsible for it explained that a plot of 4.8 hectares is needed, located in Las Cumbres, owned by the Lions Club of Panama. On that site the plan is to build the northern transport terminus, where cars, buses and taxis will be able to park.”

Prensa.com reports that “…with regards to the extension of line 2, which is under construction and will go from San Miguelito to Tocumen, there is a plan to take it up to El Dorado mall, on Ricardo J. Alfaro Avenue. “
