The Bad Harzburger Dreieck (abbreviation: AD Bad Harzburg , short form: Dreieck Bad Harzburg ) is a motorway triangle in the city of Bad Harzburg in Lower Saxony . It connects the federal highway 369 ( Vienenburg - Bad Harzburg) with the federal highways 4 (Bad Harzburg - Nordhausen - Erfurt ) and 6 ( Hildesheim - Goslar - Bad Harzburg).

geography

The triangle lies at a height of approx. 205  m above sea level. NHN . The Hüttenbach , a tributary of the Radau , flows under the triangle . Immediately to the northwest is Gut Radau and the Radauer Holz alluvial forest , to the south the Westerode district and to the west the Schlewecke and Harlingerode districts .

Design and state of development

The arm leading from the leading into the outgoing B6 and the arm leading from the ending B4 into the leading B6 have two lanes, the other connecting ramps are single lane. All the roads that flow into it are four lanes and at least have a motorway-like structure. The course of the B6 is thus laid out as TOTSO .

The Bad Harzburg triangle was built as a left-hand trumpet. The Westerode junction is only 400 meters to the south and only has ramps to the north.

history

Even before the construction of the A 395 , the Bad Harzburg triangle was part of traffic considerations: A network map from the Federal Ministry of Transport from the 1970s shows a version of the Bad Harzburg triangle as a motorway junction between the A 369 and the A 36 . Ultimately, however, this variant failed, so that only the Braunschweig – Bad Harzburg route, now dedicated as the 395 federal motorway, and the Bad Harzburg bypass starting south of the Westerode junction, were built and released as a four-lane federal highway 4 from the late 1960s to 1972, although the cross-section did not conform to the motorway. At the same time, the four-lane Goslar bypass was opened in 1969 , which began on the B 241 near Sudmerberg and led through the Goslar urban area to the junction of the B 82 . These two parts were connected by the construction of the new federal highway 6 , which now began at the Bad Harzburger Dreieck and was realized between 1981 and 1987.

In the course of the construction of another four-lane route and the Vienenburg motorway triangle (today the North Harz motorway triangle ) from 1996, the A 395 north of Bad Harzburger Dreieck was stepped down to the B 6 on October 2, 2001 in order to ensure a continuous route. The two motorway triangles now formed an independent segment that was considered as part of the debate about the upgrading of the B 6 in the northern Harz region from 2018 and was officially upgraded under the name A 369 on January 1, 2019 .
