Nicaragua has announced the start of work on a new canal linking the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The 278km (172 mile) waterway will be longer, deeper and wider than the Panama Canal. The Grand Canal of Nicaragua, as it has been called, aims to rival Panama’s waterway and lift the country out of poverty.
