The national highway 111 (abbreviation: B 111 ) is a German national road . It has started since 2002 on the A 20 motorway 2 km west of Gützkow and ends on the B 110 near Mellenthin . Since January 2008, federal road 111 has followed the course of the former state road L 265 (Schmollensee – Pudagla – Mellenthin). Previously, the route of the B 111 was to the Polish border on the island of Usedom in the municipality of Heringsdorf , district Seebad Ahlbeck .

history

Blasted Peene Bridge near Wolgast in 1946

The main road from Berlin with a branch to Stettin and further to Stralsund (since 1990 B 109 ) was built between 1833 and 1836 as the first road through Western Pomerania . By 1848 a branch line from Moeckow-Berg (near Züssow) to Wolgast was built , the course of which corresponds to the B 111. Its continuation to Gützkow for the later B 96 (section Greifswald - Jarmen) was completed in 1856.

The roads in the Pomeranian area were planned and financed by the Pomeranian estates, with grants from Prussia. They were known as stone tracks and were cobbled streets with curbs and summer paths (for horse-drawn vehicles). The pavement consisted of black basalt cubes with an edge length of 8 cm, the curbs were made of gray granite (approx. 60 × 12 × 30 cm). The stone tracks were about 5 m wide, the summer path made of gravel and sand was about 2 m wide. The most important main routes (such as B 109) were not asphalted until the 1960s and the secondary routes (such as B 111) in the 1970s with a width of around 8 m. The pavement and the curbs were picked up and mostly sold to the FRG (old). There are only a few remaining stretches with this original structure and paving - for example at the connection of the former B 96 (bypass) to Breechen near Gützkow.

Road construction on the island of Usedom did not begin until the second half of the 19th century. In the years 1872 to 1874 the eastern section from Swinoujscie to Heringsdorf was built, which was extended to Pudagla from 1878 to 1881. The western section from Wolgast to Zinnowitz was built in 1882. With the completion of the last section between Zinnowitz and Pudagla in 1887, the continuous road connection between Wolgast and Swinoujscie was completed.

1932 furnished highway 111 (FVS 111) , from 1934 Reichsstraße 111 (R 111) , called combined the islands Usedom and Wolin with the Pomeranian mainland and resulted in Gollnow in the realm Straße 2 . The section east of Swinoujscie is one of the former imperial roads in Western Pomerania .

On June 24, 1934, a bascule bridge was built over the Peenestrom near Wolgast, which was blown up on April 30, 1945. Soon after the war the bridge was rebuilt and reopened on March 27, 1950 under the name "Bridge of Friendship".

In the 1990s, a new combined road and rail bascule bridge was built in Wolgast. In 1996 it was opened for road traffic and in 2000 for rail traffic, with the old bridge being demolished. In addition, the lines in the city of Wolgast changed to relieve the historical center. So that no further level crossing was built, a new route with a railway underpass was built in the Mahlzow district.

In 2005 the bypass road at Gützkow was completed as part of the B 111 because of the connection to the A 20.

Planning

It is planned to build a bypass road for Wolgast south of the Zieser Berg to Sauzin. Another bridge over the Peene river is necessary for this. This is to be designed as a high bridge (similar to the Rügen bridge). This bypass, like the Lühmannsdorf bypass, has been registered by the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania for the Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan 2030 .

statistics

An automatic permanent counting station of the Federal Highway Research Institute is installed at Bannemin . In 2009 it counted an average of 13,167 vehicles per 24 hours, 578 vehicles belonging to heavy traffic.

For the manual counting, which takes place every five years, the B 111 was divided into eight sections. The results from 2005 still refer to the old course of the road.

Others

The A 111 (it runs in the north of Berlin and connects the Berlin city ring A 100 with the Berlin ring A 10 ) between the junctions Schulzendorfer Straße and Waidmannsluster / Hermsdorfer Damm was called the B 111 for a long time, with no historical reference to the street described here.
