history
origin

Previous routes and names
The national highway 169 between Cottbus and Plauen Small Friesen was introduced to the 1937th It led from Plauen Kleinfriesen over Großfriesen and met the current route at the so-called Dreckschenke. From Neuensalz was rebuilt in the GDR. Construction plan documents show that construction work was carried out in the early 1970s. In the GDR it was referred to as main road 169 (abbreviation F 169 ).
Gradations
With effect from January 1, 2016, the section between the A 72 motorway junction in Niederdorf and the federal highway 173 Südring Chemnitz was downgraded to the state roads 257 and 258.
expansion
Saxony
The B 169 is currently being expanded in the second section in the Riesa / Döbeln area. From the junction of the B 6 in Seerhausen to the completed four-lane section in Riesa, it was expanded as the B 169n and opened to traffic on September 24, 2012. The European Regional Development Fund contributed 20 million euros to the costs.
According to the Saxon state government, the further expansion is to be carried out up to the junction A 14 Döbeln Nord. The project in particular serves to create an efficient road connection between the city of Riesa and the federal motorway 14 north of Döbeln. In this area, it will relieve traffic in the Salbitz and Seerhausen locations. Through the implementation, the current noise and pollution will be eliminated, based on the traffic occupancy with a high proportion of heavy traffic for the residents, which is associated with an improvement in the quality of life. The travel time is also shortened considerably as there is no need to drive through town. For the expansion between Seerhausen and Döbeln several approval procedures and decisions from the neighboring communities about the route variants of the B 169 are still required.
Since 2013, the "Göltzschtal bypass" has been under construction to re-route the B 169 between Rodewisch and Siebenhitz (Neustadt / Vogtl.) . The work should be completed in 2018, but the opening was postponed to 2021 due to contaminated sites.
Brandenburg
Currently, the partially three-lane expansion of the B 169 between the Ruhland and Plessa motorway junction to form a motor vehicle is in planning. According to the current state of knowledge, the 14.5 kilometer long new construction with several bridges is to begin in two stages from 2017/2018 [obsolete] . The B 169 represents a nationally important east-west route between Cottbus and the Elbe-Elster district and has a high proportion of traffic in the south of the country.
The regional planning procedure (ROV) for the OU Elsterwerda in the area of the B 169 was opened on January 4, 2010.
The estimated construction costs currently amount to 32.5 million euros.
additional
The B 169 runs as a route through Niederlausitz across the whole of Niederlausitz . Of the total length of 257 kilometers, around 30 kilometers have been expanded into four lanes. Partly the federal highway 169 runs on the same route with other federal highways, such as the B 96 .
The Erzgebirge folk rock singer and songwriter Stefan Gerlach dedicated the song “De 169” (published in 1994) to the street that leads through his home town of Stützengrün .
