Autostrada A2, otherwise known as the Autostrada del Mediterraneo ("Mediterranean motorway") or Salerno–Reggio Calabria, is an autostrada (Italian for "motorway") 432 km long in Italy located in the regions of Campania, Basilicata and Calabria. Running between the towns of Fisciano, in the province of Salerno, and Villa San Giovanni, in the province of Reggio Calabria, the motorway forms part of European routes E45, E841 and E90.

History

The A2 was created in 2017 by merging the Fisciano to Salerno section of the spur route RA 2 (part of European route E841) with the Salerno to Villa San Giovanni section of the A3 motorway (part of E45). The spur route to Reggio Calabria is part of E90. At the same time, an advertising campaign for tourism purposes was launched, with ten cultural routes and an advertising spot starring Giancarlo Giannini.
