Nice to know info:
The ship has been freed and directed to proceed to a larger area in the canal called Bitter Creek where it's to park along the bank and await inspection of its cargo. The Evergreen is about the length of the Empire State Building in height.
In similar news, Israel is planning a canal along its side of Sinai to the Red Sea. Giving sea traffic, two canals to use in the future. Helping to prevent future blockages and increased traffic flow. Maybe one can be used for South-bound traffic and one for North-bound traffic and benefit both country's economies equally and speed up all ships idle time. And time is money. The journey from one end to the other is about 15 hours on average not counting waiting in line to enter the canal. It was built in 1869 and could use widening in places.
