Have they started dredging the Mississippi to accommodate the new size shipping containers ships? I know New York had to raise a bridge and have been preparing.

The problem are bridges, not depth.

Do they fit thru the Panama Canal or avoid it completely?

They deepened the channel to 50 ft. Recenetly.
