The car Route 3 , just A3 , also under Diddelenger Autobunn known is an important part of the motorway network in the Grand Duchy Luxembourg and runs in a north-south direction over a distance of 13.318 km of Gasperich / Howald to the Luxembourg-French border crossing Dudelange where they merges into the French A31 to Diedenhofen . Access to the A3 is provided by three exits and exits as well as two motorway junctions and a service area.
At Gasperich the B3 merges into the A3. At the Gaspericher Kreuz it crosses the A1 / A6 . The Aire de Berchem (rest stop) with Europe's largest petrol station follows.
A little further south, the A3 crosses the A13 (Collectrice du Sud / Liaision avec la Sarre) at Bettemburger Kreuz .
The motorway was put into operation between 1978 and 1981 and was designed as a replacement / relief for national road 3 . Since the A3 is often used by holidaymakers on their way to the Mediterranean coast, it is also often referred to as the "Autoroute du soleil".
