The Autostrada A19 is an autostrada (Italian for "motorway") 199.6 kilometres (124.0 mi) long in Italy on the island of Sicily that links Palermo to Catania. The motorway from Palermo follows the Tyrrhenian coast and then turns south to go over the Madonie mountains[1][2] and across the centre of the island to descend into the plain of Catania. It is a part of the E90 and E932 European routes.
The motorway is connected to the A20 Messina-Palermo and is linked to the A18 Catania-Messina by the RA15 (Catania's Ring Road-West).
