The Hegau motorway junction (abbreviation: AK Hegau ; short form: Hegau cross ) is a motorway junction in Hegau near Singen am Hohentwiel in Baden-Württemberg . The cross connects the Autobahn 81 ( Würzburg  - Stuttgart  - Singen  - Switzerland ) ( Europastraße 41 ), 98 (AK Hegau - Stockach  - Friedrichshafen ) ( Europastraße 54 ) and the B 33 (AK Hegau - Konstanz  - Switzerland).

geography

The motorway junction is located in the area of ​​the city of Singen in the district of Konstanz . It is located about 100 km south of Stuttgart, about 20 km northeast of Schaffhausen and about 30 km northwest of Konstanz .

The location of this motorway junction is determined by the course of the A 81 and the development in the outer area of ​​the city of Singen.

The junction on the A 81 is junction number 40 and on the A 98 it is number 11.

history

According to the plans at the time, the A 98 Basel - Schaffhausen - Singen - Lindau and the A 81 Stuttgart - Singen - Konstanz should cross at this motorway junction. However, this could not be realized in this form, since the construction of the Bodenseautobahn A 98 in the direction of Lindau was abandoned and was only carried out as far as Stockach .

The section of the A 98 from the motorway junction in the direction of Schaffhausen was renamed the A 81 in 1977 at the request of the CDU in the state parliament of Baden-Württemberg. The section of the continuation of the A 81 in the direction of Konstanz, which was under construction at the time, was then renamed the A 881 and a short time later the B 33 . The dedication of the section planned and built as A 98 towards Stockach, however, remained.

In the early 1990s, the Singen motorway junction was renamed the Hegau motorway junction.

Design

The Singen motorway junction (working name AK Schlatt ), named after completion, was designed to be traffic-oriented, which means that the predominant traffic volume Stuttgart - Singen - Zurich is led "across the corner" in the direction of Schaffhausen. The Stuttgart - Lindau traffic relationship has also been expanded as the main traffic relationship. In contrast, the traffic relations Singen - Lindau, Singen - Konstanz and Konstanz - Lindau are subordinate to the direction and opposite direction.
