The Autobahnkreuz Schweinfurt / Werneck (also Kreuz Schweinfurt / Werneck , abbreviation: AK Schweinfurt / Werneck ) is a Autobahnkreuz in northwestern Bavaria in the administrative region of Lower Franconia . The cross consists of the
- Ast-Nord, Autobahn 7 towards Fulda ,
- Ast-Süd, federal motorway 7 towards Würzburg ,
- Ast-Ost, Bundesautobahn 70 towards Schweinfurt ,
- Ast-West, Bundesstraße 26a towards Arnstein .
In addition, the European route 48 (federal motorway 70), which leads from Schweinfurt to Prague , begins here at European route 45 (federal motorway 7) .
Position and design
The motorway junction is located entirely in the Werneck market area . Surrounding places are Stettbach , Eckartshausen and Rundelshausen .
The cross does not follow any of the typical forms of a motorway junction, it is realized as a mixture of clover leaf with the windmill . Since it was expanded from a motorway junction to a motorway junction with relatively little resources using the existing lanes, and therefore also harbors dangers, especially from the direction of Würzburg in the direction of Schweinfurt, with an unusually small curve radius and corresponding speed limit. The two roundabouts east of the A 7 are built as a normal clover leaf, while the two western connections are designed differently. The north-east connection is not designed as an indirect ramp , as is the case with a normal cloverleaf , but branches off the direct north-west ramp, runs under the northern lane of the A 70 and joins the southern lane of the A 70.
history
The planning for a southern bypass of the city of Schweinfurt on the route of today's federal motorway 70 began in the 1960s. The structure was opened to traffic in 1966 as a single -lane federal highway 26a and connected to federal highway 7 at the Schweinfurt / Werneck junction , today's highway intersection. However, many serious and fatal accidents occurred on the B26a. The upgrading of the federal highway B26a in the area east of the intersection to federal highway 70 took place in 1981; at that time the junction was still called the Autobahn triangle . It is planned to extend federal highway 26a west of the junction like a motorway (yellow motorway) as an access axis for the Main-Spessart district and western bypass for Würzburg and to connect it to federal motorway 3 at the Helmstadt junction . It will then be called Bundesstraße 26n and will initially be carried out in a first construction phase from AK Schweinfurt-Werneck to Karlstadt .
Traffic volume
Around 70,000 vehicles pass through the cross every day.
