It is a little further all the way to Panama City because of the road grid. However, the major development will be towards the west about equally between the mine and the city as the crow flies.
In addition they have broken ground on a new international airport a little further to the west and nearer to the road up to the mine.

The government has definitely closed the idea of expansion towards the east, (hacia Colombia), and in fact killed the idea of broaching once and for all the Darien swamp to like North and South America. The macro plan is to grow toward the west all the way to David over the next twenty years. It is really beautiful country that direction and seven or eight five star resorts will be built along the beaches. No swamps or jungle, just cattle ranches and farms. Sort of like Indiana 150 yrs. ago.
