And at near Frankfurt am MainThe Autobahn ( IPA: ( ); German plural Autobahnen) is the federal system in. The official German term is Bundesautobahn (plural Bundesautobahnen, abbreviated BAB), which translates as 'federal motorway'. The literal meaning of the word Bundesautobahn is 'Federal Auto(mobile) Track'.German Autobahnen are widely known for having no federally mandated for some classes of vehicles. However, limits are posted (and enforced) in areas that are urbanised, substandard, accident-prone, or under construction.
On speed-unrestricted stretches, an ( ) of 130 kilometres per hour (81 mph) applies. While driving faster is not illegal as such in the absence of a speed limit, it can cause an increased liability in the case of a collision (which the mandatory auto insurance has to cover); courts have ruled that an 'ideal driver' who is exempt from absolute liability for 'inevitable' tort under the law would not exceed Richtgeschwindigkeit.A 2017 report by the Federal Road Research Institute reported that in 2015 70.4% of the autobahn network had only the advisory speed limit, 6.2% had temporary speed limits due to weather or traffic conditions, and 23.4% had permanent speed limits. Measurements from the German State of in 2006 showed average speeds of 142 km/h (88 mph) on a 6-lane section of autobahn in free-flowing conditions. Pattern of autobahns 10 to 999Similar to high-speed motorways in other countries, autobahns have multiple lanes of traffic in each direction, separated by a central barrier with junctions and access restricted to motor vehicles with a top speed greater than 60 km/h (37 mph).
Nearly all exits are to the right; rare left-hand exits result from incomplete interchanges where the 'straight-on' leads into the exit. The earliest motorways were flanked by about 60 centimetres (24 in) in width, constructed of varying materials; right-hand shoulders on many autobahns were later retrofitted to 120 centimetres (47 in) in width when it was realized cars needed the additional space to pull off the autobahn safely. In the postwar years, a thicker cross-section with full paved hard shoulders came into general use. The top design speed was approximately 160 km/h (99 mph) in flat country but lower design speeds were used in hilly or mountainous terrain. A flat-country autobahn that was constructed to meet standards during the, could support the speed of up to 150 km/h (93 mph) on curves.The current autobahn numbering system in use in Germany was introduced in 1974. All autobahns are named by using the capital letter A, which simply stands for 'Autobahn' followed by a blank and a number (for example ). The main autobahns going all across Germany have a single digit number.
Shorter autobahns that are of regional importance (e.g. Connecting two major cities or regions within Germany) have a double digit number (e.g., connecting Berlin and Hamburg). The system is as follows:. to are in eastern Germany (Berlin, parts of and ). to are in northern and northeastern Germany.
to are in (northwestern Germany) and Thuringia. to are in the to. to are in the to. to are in, and northern. to are in, northern and parts of.
is in. to are in (southern)There are also some very short autobahns built just for local traffic (e.g. Or the from Cologne to Bonn) that usually have three digits for numbering. The first digit used is similar to the system above, depending on the region.East-west routes are even-numbered, north-south routes are odd-numbered. The north-south autobahns are generally numbered from west to east; that is to say, the more easterly roads are given higher numbers. Similarly, the east-west routes are numbered from north (lower numbers) to south (higher numbers).History. See also:Just days after the 1933 takeover, enthusiastically embraced an ambitious autobahn construction project, appointing, the Inspector General of German Road Construction, to lead it.
By 1936, 130,000 workers were directly employed in construction, as well as an additional 270,000 in the supply chain for construction equipment, steel,concrete, signage, maintenance equipment, etc. In rural areas, new camps to house the workers were built near construction sites. The aspect was not especially important because was almost reached by 1936. The autobahns were not primarily intended as major infrastructure improvement of special value to the military as often stated. Their military value was limited as all major military transports in Germany were done by train to save fuel. The propaganda ministry turned the construction of the autobahns into a major media event that attracted international attention.The autobahns formed the first limited-access, high-speed road network in the world, with the first section from Frankfurt am Main to opening in 1935.
This straight section was used for high-speed record attempts by the racing teams of and until a fatal accident involving popular German race driver in early 1938. The world record of 432 kilometres per hour (268 mph) set by on this stretch just prior to the accident remains one of the highest speeds ever achieved on a public motorway. A similar intent in the 1930s existed for a ten-kilometre stretch of what is today just south of —called the —had bridges with no piers, meant for land speed record cars like the to have made a record attempt, abandoned due to the outbreak of four months earlier.World War II During World War II, the of some autobahns were paved over to allow their conversion into. Aircraft were either stashed in numerous tunnels or camouflaged in nearby woods. However, for the most part during the war, the autobahns were not militarily significant. Motor vehicles, such as trucks, could not carry goods or troops as quickly or in as much bulk and in the same numbers as trains could, and the autobahns could not be used by as their weight and damaged the road surface. The general shortage of petrol in Germany during much of the war, as well as the low number of trucks and motor vehicles needed for direct support of military operations, further decreased the autobahn's significance.
As a result, most military and economic freight was carried by rail. After the war, numerous sections of the autobahns were in bad shape, severely damaged by heavy and military demolition. Furthermore, thousands of kilometres of autobahns remained unfinished, their construction brought to a halt by 1943 due to the increasing demands of the war effort.
In 1991 West Germany: 1949-1990 In (FRG), most existing autobahns were repaired soon after the war. During the 1950s, the West German government restarted the construction program. It invested in new sections and in improvements to older ones.

Finishing the incomplete sections took longer, with some stretches opened to traffic by the 1980s. Some sections cut by the in 1945 were only completed after in 1990. Others were never completed, as more advantageous routes were found. Some of these incomplete sections to this very day stretch across the landscape forming a unique type of, often easily visible on satellite photographs.East Germany: 1949-1990 The autobahns of (GDR) were neglected in comparison to those in West Germany after 1945. East German autobahns were used primarily for GDR military traffic and for state-owned farming or manufacturing vehicles.
The speed limit on the GDR autobahns was 100 kilometres per hour (62 mph); however, lower speed limits were frequently encountered due to poor or quickly changing road conditions. The speed limits on the GDR autobahns were rigorously enforced by the, whose patrol cars were frequently found hiding under camouflage tarpaulins waiting for speeders.Reunification: 1990-present day The last 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) of the remaining original Reichsautobahn, a section of northeast of near built in 1936—the westernmost remainder of the never-finished —are scheduled for replacement around 2015. Roadway condition is described as 'deplorable'; the 25 metres (82 ft)-long concrete slabs, too long for proper expansion, are cracking under the weight of the traffic as well as the weather.

Near Munich with 8 lanesAs of 2016, Germany's autobahn network has a total length of about 12,993 km. From 2009 Germany has embarked on a massive widening and rehabilitation project, expanding the lane count of many of its major arterial routes, such as the in the southwest and going east-west.Most sections of Germany's autobahns have two or three, sometimes four lanes in each direction in addition to an emergency lane. A few sections have only two lanes in each direction without emergency lanes, and short slip-roads and ramps.The motorway density in Germany is 36 kilometers per thousand square kilometer in 2016, close to that of the smaller countries nearby (Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Slovenia).
