==Transport== The region has a good network of roads, but the railway network is less comprehensive, particularly in the south. There are no high-speed lines, but a high-speed line between Naples and Bari is under construction, which should be completed in 2027.<ref>{{cite web |title=Naples - Bari |url=https://www.fsitaliane.it/content/fsitaliane/it/opere-strategiche/napoli---bari.html |publisher=Ferrovie Dello Stato Italiane |access-date=15 August 2023 |language=it}}</ref> The region is crossed northwest to southeast by the [[Autostrada A14 (Italy)|A14 highway]] ([[Bologna]]–[[Taranto]]), which connects the region's capital, [[Bari]], to [[Taranto]], the second most populous city in the region. The A14 also connects [[Foggia]] and points further north along the Adriatic coast to [[Pescara]], [[Ancona]], [[Rimini]] and eventually [[Bologna]]. The only other highway in the region is the [[Autostrada A16 (Italy)|A16]] (Naples–Canosa), which crosses the Italian peninsula east–west and links the region with [[Naples]]. There are two international airports, [[Bari Karol Wojtyła Airport|Karol Wojtyła Airport]] in Bari ([[IATA]]: '''BRI''') and [[Brindisi Airport]] (IATA: '''BDS'''), which serve as the principal logistical hub for the United Nations Global Service Center headquartered in [[Brindisi]]. With the approval of a redevelopment project in 2018, the [[Grottaglie Airfield]] (IATA: '''TAR''') will host a [[spaceport]] for the [[Italian Space Agency]] and [[Virgin Galactic]].
