In addition to public transport, Adlikon also has a full connection to the A4 . This motorway will be expanded by 1 lane in each direction from 2021. This will lead to more capacity. The public launch of this project took place in February 2016, and 48 suggestions for improvement were submitted. Commissioning is scheduled for 2023.

history

The settlement of the municipality in Roman times is documented by manors near Niederwil and Dätwil .

The place was first mentioned probably in 1040: in villa Adalinchova hoba ; however, the distinction to Adlikon near Regensdorf causes difficulties in the early documents. The place name is a combination of an Old High German personal name expanded by the affiliation suffix -ing- with the basic word hof and means something like 'at the courtyards of the clan of Adalo / Adilo'.

Since 1817 Adlikon has been an independent municipality, in 1872 Humlikon was separated. A certain economic development took place from 1958.
