The federal highway 89 (abbreviation: BAB 89 ) - short form: Autobahn 89 (abbreviation: A 89 ) - is an abandoned highway plan that connects the Ulm area with Biberach an der Riss , Ravensburg and Friedrichshafen . The project has been continued since 1979 as a motorway-like new construction and expansion of the federal highway 30 , after the A 89 was deleted from the federal traffic route plan in 1980 .

Route

Currently, a total of 57.9 kilometers on the route originally intended for the A 89 as the B 30 have been completed with four lanes .

Gunzburg - Ulm

Starting (on the A 8 ) near Günzburg , the A 89 should cross the A 7 south of Nersingen , pass Neu-Ulm and come to the Neu-Ulm ( A 80 ) motorway junction . In the Neu-Ulm motorway triangle (B 28 / B 30), the bridge structures for the lanes over the former A 80 and three ears of the cloverleaf have already been implemented as preliminary construction work. Another ear (travel relationship Günzburg - Senden) can be seen on aerial photographs in the route. The route was neither built as the A 89 nor as a federal road until 2016 and is not included in the Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan 2030 . Rather, the parallel B 10 was stepped east of the A 7 near Nersingen. The A 8 and the A 7 connect Günzburg east and north of Ulm via the remaining B 10 and the B 19 with Ulm and Neu-Ulm. An expansion of the B 10 from Neu-Ulm to the A 7 is included as an urgent requirement in the federal transport infrastructure plan.

Ulm - Biberach

Construction of this section began in the mid-1960s with the two-lane bypass of Laupheim on the B 30 (section Dellmensingen - Baltringen ). In the 1970s and 1980s the A 89 and, after the planning of the motorway had been given up, the B 30 in sections from Ulm to Biberach-Jordanbad was completed. At Biberach the A 89 should cross the A 88 .

Biberach - Baindt (Egelsee)

The 1st carriageway of the A 89 between Biberach and Unteressendorf was built in 1965 as the B 30 free of intersections. In the Oberessendorf area , the A 89 should be led past the site to the east. This new building and the addition of the 2nd carriageway have not yet taken place.

In the Oberessendorf - Bad Waldsee -Nord section, the intention was to rebuild the A 89 essentially parallel to the old B 30, avoiding the local locations.

The Bad Waldsee bypass was completed in 1961 as the B 30 in two lanes. The planning for the A 89 envisaged only adding a second lane here. So far, this project has not been implemented even as a federal highway upgrade.

In the Bad Waldsee-Süd - Baindt (Egelsee) section, the A 89 was to be run essentially parallel to the old B 30, but bypassing Gaisbeuren and Enzisreute .

Baindt (Egelsee) - Ravensburg (South)

The route was not implemented before the motorway project was abandoned. However, this section was completed in the course of the new construction of the B 30. The approximately 1-3 kilometers west moved B 30n (n = new) in Weingarten is largely in the S onder- Q uerschnitt SQ24 24 meters expanded wide. The SQ24 is a standard RQ20 cross - section to which 2 m wide hard shoulders have been added on both sides to increase traffic safety. The new building served to relieve the old B 30, which led through the cities of Weingarten and Ravensburg as well as the communities of Baindt and Baienfurt . At the height from the mountain to the height of Ravensburg-Weststadt, very complex noise protection measures were installed during the construction of the B 30n. In the area west of Ravensburg the B 30n lies in sections almost exactly on the route that was initially kept free for the (Rhine-Main) Danube-Lake Constance Canal after the Second World War (see web links ). This enabled the project to be implemented without using the Schussental . The areas to the right and left of this cleared route were, however, densely built up in the post-war period . The originally planned junction at the level of the Wernerhof tunnel with Meersburger Strasse (formerly B 33) has since been abandoned due to the resulting unfavorable shift in traffic to Ravensburger Weststadt.

A triangle with the A 85 was planned northwest of Baienfurt .

Ravensburg - Friedrichshafen

The A 89 should run between Ravensburg and Friedrichshafen at a clear distance west of the old B 30. The route was planned from Ravensburg south east of Oberzell , west of Untereschach , east of Ettenkirch or west of Meckenbeuren-Brugg and Brochenzell , east of Hirschlatt , west of Friedrichshafen-Allmannsweiler and the Friedrichshafen regional airport to Friedrichshafen-Sankt Georgen . A cross with the A 98 was planned near Meckenbeuren .

The route was not implemented until the motorway planning was given up. Even today, this has largely only been developed as a single-lane B 30.

Only the section Ravensburg-Süd - Eschach has been expanded to four-lane B 30 since December 2, 2019. This was preceded by the planning approval decision and initial preparatory work for the laying of the Schussen in 2006 , and the symbolic groundbreaking ceremony on July 3, 2013.

For the Eschach - Friedrichshafen section, planning work is underway for a four-lane B 30; Here, the variant investigation was carried out in 2013 as part of the preparation of the preliminary draft. The western bypass of Meckenbeuren, which has been determined by the line since 1979, can no longer be approved due to “considerable impairment of species protected under European law”. On October 23, 2018, the Tübingen regional council announced that it would continue planning the eastern bypass.

Planning history

Up until the beginning of 1941, there was no motorway connection Ulm - Friedrichshafen or Ulm - Lindau in the network plans of the National Socialists . Only the network plan from May 1941 contains a connection between Ulm - Lindau - Dornbirn area .

The expansion plan for the federal trunk roads of the law of July 27, 1957 did not yet provide for the construction of a federal highway, but the B 30 between Ulm, Ravensburg and Friedrichshafen was included in the “blue network” of the federal highways that were to be newly developed or to be expanded. In addition, the construction of a federal highway from Leipheim (triangle with the A 8 ) - Senden or Vöhringen - Ochsenhausen - Bad Wurzach - Wangen - Lindau was planned.

The requirement plan of the law on the expansion of federal highways in the years 1971 to 1985 of June 30, 1971 also did not contain any federal motorway planning . However, the new four-lane construction of the B 10 and B 30 was intended for this purpose. The project was divided into the following sub-projects:

Short name	section	expansion	was standing
B 10n	Bubesheim near Günzburg (triangle with "Autobahn 21", later A 8 ) - south of Nersingen (junction with "Autobahn 24", later A 7 )	four-lane	II
B 30n	south of Nersingen (cross with the A 7) - south of Neu-Ulm (cross with the B 19 , later A 80 ) - Wiblingen (triangle with the planned crossbar to the B 311 )	four-lane	I.
B 30	Wiblingen - Laupheim - Äpfingen (north of Biberach)	four-lane	1st lane under traffic, 2nd lane in urgency level I; the Achstetten - Laupheim-Nord section was already under traffic on four lanes
B 30	Äpfingen - Ummendorf (cross with the B 312 , later A 88)	four-lane	ongoing project
B 30	Ummendorf (cross with the B 312) - Unteressendorf	four-lane	1st lane under traffic, 2nd lane in urgency level III

With the restructuring of the network of federal motorways, which was introduced with effect from January 1, 1975, the entire route was given the uniform designation "Federal Motorway 89".

In the network map of the federal government of January 1, 1976, the federal highway 89 was included unchanged.

In the requirement plan of the law amending the law on the expansion of federal highways from 1971 to 1985 from August 5, 1976, the route of federal motorway 89 was included unchanged, but the urgency of numerous sub-projects changed. The following picture emerged:

Bubesheim near Günzburg (triangle with the A 8) - south of Nersingen (cross with the A 7)	four-lane	possible further need
south of Nersingen (cross with the A 7) - south of Neu-Ulm (cross with the A 80)	four-lane	1st lane in urgency level Ib, 2nd lane as a possible additional requirement

Wiblingen - Laupheim - Äpfingen (north of Biberach)	four-lane	1st lane under traffic, 2nd lane in urgency level Ia; the Achstetten - Laupheim-Nord section was already under traffic on four lanes
Äpfingen - Ummendorf (cross with the A 88)	four-lane	Urgency level Ia with the exception of the 2nd lane in the Mettenberg area , which was assigned to urgency level Ib

With the second law amending the law on the expansion of federal highways from 1971 to 1985 from August 25, 1980, the A 89 came to an end. The connection Günzburg (A 8) - south of Nersingen (A 7) was omitted without replacement. The planning was limited to the construction of new sections and sections of federal highway 30:

B 30	north of Baindt - Weingarten - Ravensburg - Eschach	four-lane	Level I.
B 30	Eschach - Friedrichshafen	two-lane	Level I.

The third law amending the law on the expansion of the federal trunk roads of April 21, 1986 did not lead to the re-inclusion of the A 89 in the requirement plan. The expansion and new construction of Bundesstraße 30 was still carried out, but only between Neu-Ulm and Friedrichshafen:

B 30	north of Baindt - Weingarten - Ravensburg - Eschach	four-lane	ongoing project
B 30	Eschach - Friedrichshafen	two-lane	Urgency level II

The A 89 was still not included in the requirement plan of the Fourth Act to Change the Act on the Expansion of the Trunk Road from November 15, 1993. The expansion and new construction of Bundesstraße 30 had the following projects as its subject

B 30	Eschach - Friedrichshafen	two-lane	in further need

The requirements plan of the Fifth Act on the Amendment of the Highway Expansion Act of October 4, 2004 did not result in any new addition with regard to the A 89. It is noteworthy, however, that the new construction and expansion projects for the B 30 were in some cases both upgraded in terms of urgency and expanded in scope:
