A2 motorway (Algeria)
Freeway in Algeria
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The A2 motorway, also called the East Highway (French: Autoroute de l'Est), is a toll-free controlled-access highway in Algeria.[1] At a length of 614 kilometres (382 mi), the highway starts in Algiers and ends at the Tunisian-Algerian border at El Aioun (El Taref). The road has 3 lanes in both directions and a speed limit of 120 km/h (75 mph) with a few exceptions in dangerous areas, where it gets lowered to 100 km/h (62 mph).[citation needed] The motorway also forms the eastern part of the East-West Highway route.[1]
