A864 Dreieck Bad Dürrheim - Donaueschingen

The A864 is a left-over of the once planned A86 from Freiburg to Ulm. The A864 is build to Autobahn standards and features a quite large interchange with the A81.

Pics in both directions:

It's splitted in 2 parts:
1st part:
Rosenheim - Bernau (Chiemsee): widening to 2x3 should start around 2011
2nd part:
Bernau - Bad Reichenhal:
plans for widening to 2x3 have started in 2008; it should be finished until 2018.

Great pictures, Chris! It looks like a very smooth road

Hmm do all Autobahns have a wider right road-edge marking?

[Rohne]

It depends on the state. I.e. in Saxony, Bavaria or Baden-Württemberg both the left and right edge marking are 30cm wide.
The variant as seen in the pictures (left 15cm, right 30cm) is common in North Rhine-Westphalia, Thuringia, Rhine Land-Palatine or Hesse for instance. For the latter I know a specific rule: standard are thin lines (15cm). If the paved section beyond the line is wide enough to be used as an additional lane at least temporarily, the line will be 30cm. Thus Hessian Autobahns with shoulders are marked nearly the same way as in the pictures (only exits are different: there is not one thick but two thin lines at the short sections where acceleration/decelaration lanes are separated from the main lanes).

Munich is the city, that feels best of all German cities, at least those I´ve been too, it´s very south and it doesn´t feel very German anymore, compared to Stuttgart for example, great place, I most probably will move as soon as I finish the Berufskolleg here in Baden- Württenberg and will live in one of the best places in Germany probably. I don´t like the region in Baden- Württenberg, I am at all.

And all tunnels are awesome.

A96 Lindau - München

Click on the title to view the full 173 picture set

This is another set from my vacation in Switzerland. This one cover nearly all of the A96, 160 kilometers from Lindau to München. It's mostly a quiet motorway. The only non-motorway section still exisiting is around Wangen, but it's under construction. All non-motorway parts east of Memmingen are gone.

Nice! I like this motorway, it's relaxing.

[RipleyLV]

Great pictures, Chris!

Is this some kind a viewing tower?

[ChrisZwolle]

No, it's a bridge. I was surprised by it too, it seemed like a small river.

There are parts of the A7 in Schleswig-Holstein that have inner and outer line ca. 1 m thick. Here for example:

Now that's just overkill.

That is a bit over the top.

[Timon91]

Is that just for safety? It looks insane...
