Autobahnnetzen
Autobahnnetzen are networks of Autobahnen, or motorways, that form the high-capacity, controlled-access road systems used for regional and long-distance travel in German-speaking Europe and, more broadly, in parts of Europe. They are designed to facilitate high speeds and efficient traffic flow, connecting cities, regions, and international corridors.
Key features of Autobahnnetze include grade-separated interchanges, absence of at-grade intersections on main routes, restricted access
In Germany, the term Autobahnnetz often refers to the federal motorway network, which uses A-number designations
Planning, construction, and maintenance of Autobahnnetze are generally the responsibility of national transport authorities or state-owned
Historically, Autobahnnetze began forming in the early 20th century and expanded significantly after World War II,
