List of streets in Oberhausen-Buschhausen

The list of streets in Oberhausen-Buschhausen describes the street system in the Oberhausen district of Buschhausen with the corresponding historical references.

overview

In Buschhausen there are 8 533 inhabitants (as of December 31, 2012) on an area of ​​4.81 km². Buschhausen forms with the Black Heath, the southern part of Biefang and the west of Alsfeld the postcode district 46149.

The district - starting in the north - is bounded clockwise as follows: Beerenstrasse to Biefang , Emscher , Bayernstrasse, Kleestrasse to Schwarzen Heide , public transport route Oberhausen to Sterkrade- Mitte, federal motorway 516 to Osterfeld-Heide , railway line Duisburg-Quakenbrück and railway line Oberhausen– Arnhem to the New Center , Rhine-Herne Canal (without Westfriedhof) to Lirich , city limits to the Duisburg district of Neumühl . Thus, in this article, the MAN-Turbo-Werke are also seen as belonging to the Buschhausen district, although they are sometimes also included in Sterkrade-Mitte. A large part of Buschhausen is occupied by commercial and industrial areas, especially in the southeast (Buschhausener Straße, Lindnerstraße).

There are 63 designated traffic areas in Buschhausen, including no square but a park. Eight of these streets are only partially in the district:
Lindnerstraße crosses the district from Neumühl to Neue Mitte, Hagelkreuzstraße and Wolframstraße are only continued in Duisburg-Neumühl, Beerenstraße forms the border road to Biefang. Mecklenburger, Bayernstrasse and Neugahlener Strasse lead further into the Schwarze Heide and the Buschhausener Strasse to Lirich.

The federal freeway 42 runs through Buschhausen , whose exit 9 “Oberhausen-Buschhausen” is located on the southern outskirts and which crosses federal freeway 3 at the Oberhausen-West interchange to the west of Buschhausen . In the far east of Buschhausen is the federal motorway 516 with its exit 3 "Oberhausen-Eisenheim". There are also the following state and district roads in Buschhausen:

• Landesstraße 215: (coming from Lirich) - Buschhausener Straße - Friesenstraße - Beerenstraße - (continue in Biefang)
• District road 3: Lindnerstraße - (further in the new center)
• Kreisstraße 10: (as K10 from Neumühl) - Thüringer Straße - Mecklenburger Straße - (further in the Black Heath)

Many streets are part of thematic groups. These include:

• Lippeorte in Forsterbruch: Gartroper Strasse, Hünxer Strasse, Neugahlener Strasse
• German states and ethnic groups in the eastern part of Buschhausen and Forsterbruch: Alemannenstrasse, Bayernstrasse, Friesenstrasse, Mecklenburger Strasse, Schwabenstrasse, Thüringer Strasse (also Badenstrasse, Braunschweigstrasse, Hessenstrasse, Holsteinstrasse, Oldenburger Strasse, Pommernstrasse, Preußenstrasse, Sachsenstrasse, Württembergstrasse in the Black Heath)
• Figures from the Nibelungenlied : Brunhildstrasse, Etzelstrasse, Fafnerstrasse, Gudrunstrasse, Hagenstrasse, Krimhildstrasse, Siegfriedstrasse
• Philosophers: Fichtestrasse, Leibnizstrasse, Paulsenstrasse, Schleiermacherstrasse, Schopenhauerstrasse (see also Hegelstrasse in the Schwarzen Heide and the former Spinozastrasse )
• Poets and philologists in the west: Grimmstrasse, Rückertstrasse, Simrockstrasse (formerly Uhlandstrasse , plus former Schillerstrasse )
• Relation to the iron processing industry in the south: Hammerstraße (also former Amboßstraße , Eisenstraße , Schlägelstraße , Stahlstraße )

A special feature can still be found in the west of Buschhausen. Simrockstrasse creates a reference to the Nibelungenlied, because Karl J. Simrock brought out the most successful translation of the medieval heroic epic and opened up a further thematic group, that of poets and philologists. The Siegmundstrasse, probably named in relation to the Siegfriedstrasse, is associated with the “Nibelungenlied” theme group.
