Geography

The interchange is located between the villages of Münzenberg in Wetteraukreis to the south and Holzheim, a part of Pohlheim in Landkreis Gießen, to the north. It is within a triangle formed by Gießen, Frankfurt am Main and Wetzlar.

History

The Gambacher Kreuz was built when the A45 Dortmund-Gießen, also known as the Sauerlandlinie (Sauerland Line), was constructed. It opened in 1971 as a trumpet interchange to the south and an incomplete junction to the north onto the A5. The trumpet interchange design left room for extension to cloverleaf interchange, which was completed in 1976.

A route guidance system was installed at the intersection in 2010.[2]

Traffic

Around 125,000 vehicles pass through the interchange each day. Results of a 2010 traffic census are:

gollark: Probably? I'm not entirely sure how Android's filesystem works because it's vaguely horrible even on correctly thingied devices.
gollark: Probably there actually is a system partition or something *there*, it's just not labelled/named properly.
gollark: If they wanted it to be hard, they could just not allow people to conveniently unlock the bootloader. Yet they do.
gollark: Technically Android ROMs aren't *actually* on read-only memory, or updates wouldn't work, they're just not user-writable under normal conditions.
