history
With the opening of the Innkreis Autobahn , which connects Wels and Schärding up to a maximum of 10 kilometers south of the B 137 - i.e. West Autobahn (A 1) / Pyhrn Autobahn (A 7) and German Federal Autobahn 3 (BAB 3) - the overland road has its role largely lost as an international long-distance connection (the E 56 from Nuremberg to the E 57 Graz-Ljubljana now uses the motorway) and is only of local importance - although there has been an increase in toll refugees again since the introduction of the motorway toll.
B137 | Like the other former federal highways, Innviertler Strasse was part of the federal administration. Since April 1, 2002, it has been under state administration and continues to have the B in the number, but not the name Bundesstraße. |
