With a length of only 1.7 kilometers, Diepoldsauer Straße is one of the shortest state roads in Vorarlberg.
Road layout
Originally, up to the relocation of Vorarlberger Straße (L 190) in the Hohenems area in 2010, Diepoldsauer Straße branched off from this at a right angle near the Jewish quarter of Hohenems. After Vorarlberger Strasse was relocated as the city's main thoroughfare to relieve the historical center, Diepoldsauer Strasse now branches off about 100 meters further west from the new Vorarlberger Strasse, shortly before the tracks of the Lindau – Bludenz railway line pass under it . The Diepoldsauer Straße then leads on an almost straight route through densely built-up Hohenems settlement area and after about 900 meters crosses the Emsbach .
Shortly afterwards, Diepoldsauer Strasse meets Rheinstrasse (L 203) in a spacious roundabout in the middle of an industrial park and crosses it in the course of the roundabout. Afterwards, the road still leads directly to another roundabout in the Hohenems industrial park, which serves as a connection to the Rheintal / Walgau Autobahn (A 14) as part of the Hohenems junction . The course of the road passes under the autobahn, first to the Austrian border post and then to the Paul Grüninger Bridge over the Old Rhine , which connects Austria with Switzerland . The following Swiss main road 445, which leads through Diepoldsau, connects Diepoldsauer Strasse with Autobahn 13 (AS 3 Widnau ).
