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.

rdfs:comment	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).

(en) 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. I suoi archi piatti, i suoi pilastri sottili e il suo sistema di intercapedini documentavano i progressi fatti nella costruzione dei ponti della tarda antichità. Una prima rapida indagine sulla struttura, lunga 234 m, fu condotta all'inizio del XX secolo, ma da allora la sua esistenza è stata in gran parte trascurata dagli studiosi. Recenti foto (risalenti al 2009) mostrano che nel frattempo il ponte è crollato. (it)
