Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

The Macestus Bridge or Bridge of Sultançayır was a Roman bridge across the Macestus River (Turkish: Simav or Susurluk Çayı) at Balıkesir, in the northwestern part of modern-day Turkey. Its flattened arches, slender piers and the hollow chamber system documented the progress made in late antique bridge building. A first cursory investigation of the 234 m long structure was conducted in the early 20th century, but since then its existence has been largely neglected by scholars. Current photos from 2009 show that the bridge has collapsed in the meantime.

Summary from Türkçe / Turkish Wikipedia (trwiki)

Sultançayır Köprüsü, Balıkesir'deki Susurluk Çayı üzerinde bulunan; dar yapılı, basık kemerli ve çember oyuklu antik bir kemerli köprü. 234 metre uzunluğundaki yapının ilk gelişigüzel incelenmesi 20. yüzyılın başlarında yapılmış, ancak o zamandan beri yetkililer tarafından fazlasıyla ihmal edilmiştir. 2009 yılında çekilmiş mevcut fotoğraflar köprünün bu ihmal süresinde yıkıldığını göstermektedir.

Summary from Deutsch / German Wikipedia (dewiki)

Die Makestosbrücke oder Brücke von Sultançayır war eine römische Segmentbogenbrücke über den Fluss Makestos (Susurluk Çayı, auch Simav Çayı) in Balıkesir in der heutigen Nordwesttürkei. Das Bauwerk dokumentierte mit seinen flachen Bögen, schlanken Pfeiler und dem Hohlkammersystem die Fortschritte im spätantiken Brückenbau. Die 234 m lange Konstruktion war Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts Gegenstand erster flüchtiger Untersuchungen, geriet aber seitdem in Vergessenheit; von der Brücke sind nur noch wenige Pfeiler mitsamt den Wellenbrechern erhalten. Der Rest ist in den letzten hundert Jahren komplett verfallen (so gesehen im Juni 2009).

Summary from Italiano / Italian Wikipedia (itwiki)

Il ponte sul Macesto o ponte di Sultançayır era un ponte romano ad arco ribassato sul fiume Macesto (turco Simav o Susurluk Çayı) presso Balıkesir, nella parte nord-occidentale dell'odierna Turchia.
