Via Mühlausen Thüringen B247

First German federal road ever attributed to a private operator under a PPP scheme, the new federal road B247 will link the cities of Mühlhausen and Bad Langensalza, in the Land of Thuringia. As a new and direct connection, the project will improve mobility in North-East Thuringia and ease access to the region’s highway system. It will also increase road safety and improve the quality of life for the local residents by relieving traffic from the existing road that crosses right through the neighboring cities. About 15.000 vehicles per day are expected to take the new road, including around 15 % heavy trucks.
