The federal highway 18 (abbreviation: B 18 ) was a federal highway in Germany . It led from Lindau to Leutkirch im Allgäu. With the completion of the Federal Motorway 96 (A 96), the B 18 was completely rededicated as state or district roads. The B 18 was most recently around 22 kilometers long.

course

The B 18 began north of Rothkreuz near Lindau on the B 12 and initially ran in a northerly direction, crossed under the A 96 and led in a north-easterly direction to Wangen im Allgäu. At the AS Wangen-Nord (6) it met the A 96. Between AS Wangen-Nord (6) and AS Leutkirch-Süd (8) the main road was replaced by the motorway. From Leutkirch Süd, the federal highway continued in a north-easterly direction through Leutkirch im Allgäu and ended at AS Aichstetten (10) of the A 96. In the meantime, federal highway 18 has been completely replaced by the A 96.

history

Previous routes and names

Bundesstraße 18 emerged from Reichsstraße  18 in 1949 . The Reichsstraßen were defined uniformly for the German Reich in 1934 . After 1934, at the urging of the Memmingen party leadership , the R 18 was expanded into a modern road.

The route of the B 18 was significantly longer in 1949. It began north of Rothkreuz near Lindau on the B 12 and initially led in a north-easterly direction via Wangen im Allgäu and Leutkirch im Allgäu to Memmingen . From there it went on in an easterly direction via Erkheim, Mindelheim and Türkheim to Buchloe and ended east in the B 12. The total length at that time was around 140 kilometers.

A motorway from Lindau to Munich was planned as early as the 1930s. However, it should run over Kempten and south of the Ammer and Starnberger See . The plans after the war envisaged the connection to Munich via the Voralpenautobahn (A 98) and the A 95 .

The A 96 was only planned as a connection to Würzburg as far as Memmingen . This can still be seen today on the A 7 at the Memmingen interchange (12). When the plans for the A 98 were abandoned in 1980 due to the enormous costs, insufficiently verifiable demand and lack of acceptance, the expansion of the line between Memmingen and Munich was pushed ahead.

Replacements

The A 96 replaced the B 18 on the following routes:

  • 1980: AS Sigmarszell (3) - Esseratsweiler
  • 1990: Esseratsweiler - AS Wangen-Nord (6)
  • 1990: AS Aitrach (11) - AS Memmingen-Ost (14)
  • 1991: AS Aichstetten (10) - AS Aitrach (11)
  • 1994: AS Leutkirch-Süd (8) - AS Aichstetten (10)
  • 1994: AS Erkheim (16) - AS Bad Wörishofen (20)
  • 2000: AS Gebrazhofen - AS Leutkirch-Süd (8)
  • 2002: AS Bad Wörishofen (20) - AS Jengen / Kaufbeuren (22)
  • 2006: AS Holzgünz (15) - AS Erkheim (16)
  • 2007: AS Memmingen-Ost (14) - AS Holzgünz (15)
  • 2009: AS Wangen-Nord (6) - AS Leutkirch-Süd (8)

Some sections of the A 96 were approved in advance and dedicated as B 18 (a):

  • 1978 single lane: AS Aitrach (11) - AK Memmingen (12)
  • 1983 single lane: AK Memmingen (12) - AS Memmingen-Ost (14)
  • 1988 single lane: Esseratsweiler - Baind
  • 1990 similar to the motorway: Kirchdorf - AS Bad Wörishofen (20)
  • 1993 single-lane: AS Leutkirch-Süd (8) - AS Aichstetten (10)
  • 1999 single lane: Gebrazhofen - Leutkirch-Süd (8)

Further expansion

There was no further expansion of the federal road. The remaining sections of the B 18 were downgraded to state, country, district or municipal roads. This ended the existence of the federal highway.

Trivia

The B18 went down in television history in 1963: In the first episode ("Five Photos") of the ZDF crime series Das Kriminalmuseum , it served the perpetrator as a futile escape route from Munich to Switzerland.
