The stations with the greatest construction progress are Pedregal, Las Acacias, Hospital de Este, Cincuentenario, San Antonio and Las Mañanitas. Work progresses in these stations with the installation of the roofs, escalators and stairs, technical rooms at the lobby level and station accesses.

Work also continues on laying the railway track on the viaduct over the Pan-American highway and the Domingo Díaz road with 19 kilometres laid and on the installation of the catenary posts, trays and guard rails on the viaduct.

The project has 37 active work faces, from the area of El Machetazo in San Miguelito to the sidings and workshops in the municipality of 24 de Diciembre, where the progress is 41%.

Work on the underground infrastructure there includes drainage, channelling and fire fighting systems as well as the installation of catenary posts, the building of the platforms for the station tracks, construction of mechanical workshops and administrative offices and power sub-stations.

In the next few months, the work will be focused on finishing the 16 stations, the civil engineering and the installation of electrical, communications, fire protection and water supply systems. The 23 kilometres of viaduct will also be finished, mainly in the San Miguelito area and the Avenida Domingo Díaz, among other tasks.

This project will have a positive effect on more than half a million Panamanians living in the eastern area of the capital city. Approximately 4,000 persons are working on the project together with more than 100 sub-contractors, mostly local, taking part in the building of this infrastructure.
