A3 BW48 Danube Bridge Sinzing - Planning service for the replacement of the new building
The A 3 is one of the most important German motorways and, with a length of almost 780 km, the second longest motorway
Germany. It links the Rhine-Main region with Austria and Southeastern Europe. In addition, the A 3 is a
important lifeline of Regensburg: trade and commerce, industrial companies, educational and
Health facilities are located on both sides of the highway.
The A3 Nuremberg-Passau motorway is already heavily loaded. Especially in the catchment area of the regional center
Regensburg's long-distance traffic overlaps with urban traffic and heavy urban-suburban traffic.
Since 1990, traffic on the section to be planned has almost doubled. Due to the
The dynamic development of the regional centre of Regensburg is due to the superimposition of long-distance and
Regional traffic is already experiencing capacity-related obstructions to road traffic during peak hours.
The client (AG), Die Autobahn GmbH des Bundes, Niederlassung Südbayern, Außenstelle Regensburg
is planning the "6-lane expansion of the A 3 Nuremberg - Passau between west of the Nittendorf junction and the Regensburg junction".
In the course of this, it is intended to renew the affected structure as well. The aim of the overall project is to extend the A3
for the foreseeable transport needs.
The Danube bridge Sinzing (BW 48) is part of the planning scope of the 6-lane expansion of the A 3 Nuremberg - Passau in the
Section west of the junction (AS) Nittendorf and the motorway junction (AK) Regensburg. The
The planned expansion runs over a length of 12.75 km from Str.-km 478+500 to Str.-km 491+250. Since the
The Danube bridge over Sinzing is in poor structural condition, it is to be rebuilt in the course of the A3 expansion in the
early construction phase AS Sinzing - AK Regensburg.
The structural feasibility of the measure while maintaining traffic is particularly important in the planning phase
to be taken into account. The corresponding planning for traffic routing during construction will be carried out by the
Overall project "6-lane expansion AS Nittendorf - AK Regensburg" completed. For this purpose, correspondingly close

An important part of the planning is the dismantling of the existing bridge. Here, above all, the interests of DB must be taken into account.
