Béja - Trajan's Bridge

(Local Name: Pont de Trajan) 13km/8mi south of Béja, spanning the Oued Béja, is the Pont de Trajan (Trajan's Bridge). It is reached on MC 76, which runs broadly parallel to the railroad; part of the road is in poor condition. The bridge, excellently preserved, is 70m/77yds long, with three arches. It is believed to have been built in A.D. 29 to carry the road from Carthage to Bulla Regia.
