Autostrada A24 (Italy)
The Autostrada A24 or “Parks Motorway”, is a highway connecting Rome to the Adriatic Sea. Starting from GRA and ending to Teramo, the A24 create a new historical linkage between Rome and the insidious apennine mountains, alongside long-time roads Salaria, Flaminia and Tiburtina Valeria.
Below Gran Sasso the highway tunnels reach underground particle physics laboratories, the largest in the world.
First planned in 1973 to connect Tyrrhenian to Adriatic highways, the route currently ends on Teramo and continue by dual-carriageway up to A14 "Teramo-Giulianova" toll road, with the remainder of the distance to Giulianova, on the Adriatic Sea, actually under construction. The highway includes two long tunnels under Gran Sasso massif, running West to East and vice versa, with each tunnel just over 6.3 miles in length.
The route is currently managed by Strada dei Parchi S.p.A..Route
