The federal motorway 75 (abbreviation: BAB 75 ) - short form: Autobahn 75 (abbreviation: A 75 ) - was planned as a western bypass of Nuremberg , Fürth and Erlangen and, together with the A 73 and A 77, should be a powerful north-south axis from Coburg to Donauwörth . In the period from 1969 to 1980, the North Bavarian Motorway Directorate carried out several regional planning procedures for the construction of the A 75. In the early 1980s, the plans were finally abandoned.
Planned route
The planned route of the A 75 can be seen in the network plan from 1976. It was planned that the route of the A 75 branched off south of the Hilpoltstein junction from the A 9 at the Weinsfeld motorway triangle and ran from there in a north-westerly direction. Subsequently, a crossing with the federal highway 2 (planned as A 77) south of Roth was planned. The A 6 would have been crossed between Heilsbronn and Rohr . From there, the route should continue northwards. The next crossing points would have been the federal highway 14 and the federal highway 8 (planned as A 752 ) east of Langenzenn . After Herzogenaurach , the route would have been swiveled to the east. The A 75 should then cross the A 3 at Heßdorf . It would then have continued in an easterly direction until it would have been connected to the A73 with a motorway triangle at about Baiersdorf level .
Predecessor planning
Considerations for the construction of a motorway route west of Nuremberg were first made in the 1930s. To supplement the basic network, the Supreme Site Management of the Reichsautobahnen Nürnberg (OBR Nürnberg) planned a 37 km long west bypass along the Rednitz . It was supposed to connect the Reichsautobahn lines Würzburg - Nuremberg and Heilbronn - Nuremberg with each other and thus form a closed motorway ring around Nuremberg. However, due to the Second World War, the western bypass was no longer realized.
