Autostrada A16 (Italy)

The Autostrada A16 or Autostrada dei Due Mari ("Two Seas Motorway") is an autostrada (Italian for "motorway") 172.5 km long connecting Naples and Canosa di Puglia, before merging with the Autostrada A14.

The road is also known as "Autostrada dei Due Mari" ("Two Seas Motorway") because it connects Naples, on the Tyrrhenian coast, with Bari, on the Adriatic coast.

On the night of 28 July 2013, a serious traffic accident occurred on the A16 near Avellino when a coach carrying pilgrims fell off a flyover into a ravine. At least 39 people, including the driver, were killed and many others injured.

The acclaimed A16 Restaurants in San Francisco and Oakland, California, feature food from Campania region and are named for the autostrada.
