The Lände Erlangen is a port and commercial area in the west of the independent city of Erlangen in Middle Franconia .
geography
The Erlangen Lände is three kilometers west of the city center of Erlangen between the districts of Büchenbach and Schallershof and is an industrial and port area of almost 90 hectares on the Main-Danube Canal (MDK). The area is a Latvian plain on Keuper layers above the Regnitzgrund, which runs 800 m to the east . It is located at canal kilometer 45.7 west (left bank) of the Main-Danube Canal at an altitude of 285 m above sea level. NN on the attitude of Erlangen.
history
The Ludwig-Danube-Main Canal had passed Erlangen to the west as early as the 1840s . After damage in the Second World War , it was closed around 1950, also due to the outdated transport capacities. In the 1960s, it was completely overbuilt in the Erlangen city area as a route for the federal motorway 73 ; the planning and construction activities for the new sewer construction began. The parcels of Klosterberg and Lerchenbühl about one kilometer to the west were selected as the site.
A canal monument still reminds of the historical facilities (see picture). The new port facilities near Erlangen went into operation in the summer of 1970.
Commerce and infrastructure
The total area of the Erlangen port area is around 90 hectares and is not yet fully used. 15 hectares are free, 5 hectares are occupied by the port facilities and their transport routes themselves, and 1.1 hectares are used for storage. Road / ship mainly handles stones, bulk goods such as gravel and coal, ores and scrap. In 2006 a cargo turnover of around 82,000 t was achieved. A 12-t and an 8-t crane, industrial trucks and pumps are available, which are currently not constantly manned and are only looked after as required. Customs clearance would also be possible on site. With a quay length of 350 meters, either two push-pull convoys with a length of 185 m or three motorized goods ships with a length of 110 m can be moored at the same time and then lifted or loaded. At the Frauenaurach freight yard, a pull-out track branches off from the former Erlangen-Bruck-Herzogenaurach railway line to the Erlangen area and leads directly under the cranes on the quay. From the state of preservation of the facilities, however, it is easy to see that rail / ship transshipment has not taken place for years. The existing sidings are mainly used by the road / rail garbage transfer station located in the port area, which has its own branch. Directly north of the land there is a turnaround in which watercraft up to a length of 135 m can turn.
traffic
The Erlangen state has its own direct driveway to the federal highway 4 in the north ; the traffic routes can be loaded up to 70 tons.
