Almost all Roman roads in Africa were built in the first two centuries AD. In 14 AD Legio III Augusta completed a road from Tacape to Ammaedara: the first Roman road in Africa. In 42 AD, the kingdom of Mauretania was annexed by Rome. Emperor Claudius then restored and widened a Carthaginian trail and extended it west and east. This way the Romans created a continuous coastal highway stretching for 2,100 miles from the Atlantic to the Nile. In 137, Hadrian built the Via Hadriana in the eastern desert of Egypt. It ran from Antinoopolis to Berenice.

En 14, la Legio III Augusta a terminé la route allant de Tacape (Gabès) à Ammaedara, la toute première route romaine d'Afrique. En 42, le royaume de Maurétanie est annexé par Rome. L'empereur Claude restaure alors et agrandit les routes carthaginoises existantes d'Est en Ouest. De ce fait, les romains permirent la création d'une autoroute côtière et continue s'étirant sur plus de 2 100 kilomètres et allant de l'Atlantique jusqu'au Nil. En 137 Hadrien construit la via Hadriana dans l'Est du désert égyptien. Cette voie allait de Antinoupolis à Berenice. (fr) Quasi tutte le strade romane in Africa furono costruite nei primi due secoli d.C. Nel 14 d.C. la Legio III Augusta completò una strada da Takapes ad Ammaedara: la prima strada romana in Africa. Nel 42 d.C. la Mauretania fu annessa a Roma. L'imperatore Claudio restaurò e ampliò un tracciato cartaginese e lo estese da ovest a est. In questo modo i romani crearono una strada costiera continua che si estendeva per 2.100 miglia dall'Atlantico al Nilo. Nel 137 Adriano costruì la Via Hadriana nel deserto orientale dell'Egitto che andava da Antinoopoli a Berenice. (it)
