The A20 highway also called The Highway of The Soummam is a 100-kilometre-long (62 mi) road with a 2x3-lane configuration. It spans from Highway A2 to the port of Béjaïa.

It starts in the city of Ahnif in Bouïra and ends in the port of Bejaia going through the wilaya's biggest cities.[1]

It has a speed limit of 110 km/h (68 mph) with a few exceptions; on dangerous sections, it is lowered to 80 km/h (50 mph).

The road is not yet completely delivered—there are 16 kilometres (9.9 mi) left of it expected to be completed in the end of 2024.[2]
