Ipsos: the railway is the most-recalled project of the current government

In an Ipsos public-opinion survey of 1,200 citizens, 56% named the Panamá–David railway spontaneously when asked which government projects they recognized, ahead of the Fourth Bridge (46%) and the Metro (40%).

Background & context

A 56% spontaneous-recall rate, ahead of the Fourth Bridge and the Metro, is a genuinely strong result for public awareness of a project that, as of the same month, hadn't yet broken ground, it suggests the Secretariat's steady cadence of announcements and international courtship stories has cut through.

But recall is a low bar: recognising a project's name is not the same as understanding its cost, timeline, or trade-offs. That gap between awareness and understanding is what a sourced archive like this one is meant to close.
