Course

The A 33 begins east of Osnabrück in Belém as a two-lane road that branches off from the B 51. In the area of ​​Osnabrück district Schinkel the road then turns into the actual A 33 at the exit Osnabrück- Schinkel. A little later it crosses the A 30 motorway in the Osnabrück -Süd and then runs along the places Georgsmarienhütte, Hilter, Bad Rothenfelde and Dissen am Teutoburger Wald. When driving towards Bielefeld are in height Borgloh / Monastery Oesede and just before Hilter striking gradients and before Dissen a steep gradient. The northern part of the A 33 ends then provisionally after a length of about 25 kilometers in Borg Holzhausen an der B 476 From here you have to adapt to congestion and slow-moving traffic especially in Halle (Westfalen ), because not between Borgholzhausen and Bielefeld yet by replacing A 33 B 68 is often not able to receive the traffic.

After the exit of the A 33 to the Ostwestfalendamm, which is about 19 ​​km to the southeast from the Borg Holzhausener expansion end, the southern part of the highway has been completed. Here goes past the motorway at Bielefeld Brackwede, continue on the cross Bielefeld, linking the A33 with the A 2, about the places Bielefeld - Senne city, Schloss Holte- Stukenbrock, the military training ground Senne and Hovelhof direction Paderborn. There, lying on a Wall highway runs between the hamlets Elsen in the west and in the east through Schloss Neuhaus and Paderborn by itself. Then she enters the Paderborn plateau, passes Borchen - here, there are striking slopes - and finally crosses the motorway junction Wünnenberg- hair A 44 (Dortmund -Kassel). There, the A ends 33 and flows seamlessly into the B 480 on that continues over Brilon in the Sauerland.

Special

There is a 700 meter long tunnel noise between junctions Dissen / Bad Rothenfelde and Dissen -south. The A 33 was built here in trough position and then encased.

Planning

History and development

Already in cards from the 1937 plans of a highway between Osnabrück and Bielefeld with continuation to today's A 44 (Dortmund -Kassel) can be seen. In the early 1960s there was finally the first concrete plans as a replacement B68 (EB 68). The line determination for the project was carried out in sections. So the distance from the B 61 in Bielefeld was determined to the border with Saxony on September 19, 1968 in the line. The line provision for the section of the B61 to A2 in the city area of Bielefeld on 23 March 1973. If necessary plan of the Law on the strengthening of federal highways in the years 1971 to 1985 of June 30, 1971 divided the later essentially as A 33 designated polyline in following projects:

• B 68 Hesepe at Bramsche ( Federal Road 218) - Wall Horst - Haste ( four lanes, priority level I)
• B 68 Nordumgehung Osnabrück ( Haste - Dodesheide - Belém / Federal Highway 51, ​​four lanes, priority level II)
• B 68 Ostumgehung Osnabrück ( B 51 - Cross Osnabrück-Süd, four lanes, priority level I)
• B 68 / B 68n the Osnabrück -Süd - Bielefeld / B 61 ( four lanes, priority level II)
• B 68n Bielefeld / B 61 - Paderborn -Elsen ( four lanes, priority level I)
• B 1n Paderborn -Elsen - Paderborn-Zentrum ( four lanes, priority level I)
• B 480 Paderborn-Zentrum - Wuennenberg / hair ( four lanes, priority level I)

In 1971, the summary of these projects into a single polyline of a federal highway, which was given the internal designation " Highway 218 ".

With the restructuring and renumbering of the network of motorways, which was introduced with effect from 1 January 1975, the project received the new name " Autobahn 33 ". In addition, in the Osnabrück area, a modified route was planned that branch from Hesepe about Bramsche leader in Wallenhorst of the route of the B 68 A 1 a few miles north of Osnabrück AS - North crossing and Osnabrück should get on a more northerly route.

The Law amending the Law on the strengthening of federal highways in the years 1971 to 1985 by August 5, 1976 was the planned track alignment unchanged, but the urgency of the project was re-evaluated:

• Hesepe - Osnabrück -Ost ( B 51): further need
• Osnabrück- East ( B 51) - Cross Osnabrück-Süd: running projects
• The Osnabrück -Süd - Harderberg: one lane in urgency stage Ia, 2 lane: further need
• Harderberg - Dissen -South: a single lane in stage Ib, lane 2: further need
• Dissen -South - Bielefeld (B 61): further need
• Bielefeld (B 61) - Schloß Holte: stage Ia
• Schloss Holte - Paderborn- Sennelager: stage Ib
• Paderborn- Sennelager - Paderborn -Elsen: running projects
• Paderborn -Elsen - Paderborn-Zentrum: stage Ia
• Paderborn-Zentrum - Borchen: 1 lane in stage Ia, 2 roadway in stage Ib
• Borchen - AK Wünnenberg / hair: second roadway in stage Ib

Bramsche - - By the second law amending the Law on the strengthening of federal highways in the years 1971-1985 of 25 August 1980, the track was Hesepe the Osnabrück - North deleted. The urgency of the sections of the A 33 changed again:

• Nordumgehung Osnabrück (up to B51 ): Level II
• Osnabrück- East ( B 51 ) to Harderberg: running projects
• Harderberg - Steinhagen: Level I
• Steinhagen - Bielefeld (B 61): Level II
• Bielefeld (B 61) - Stukenbrock / Senne: Level I
• Stukenbrock / Senne - Wuennenberg / hair: ongoing projects already completed or

In the third Act to amend the Highway Expansion Act of 21 April 1986, the section Hesepe remained - the Osnabrück - North deleted. The urgency has now been classified as:

• Nordumgehung Osnabrück: further need
• Harderberg - Borgholzhausen: running projects
• Borgholzhausen - Cross Bielefeld (A 2): urgent requirement
• Cross Bielefeld - Wuennenberg / hair: ongoing projects already completed or

The Fourth Act to amend the Highway Expansion Act of 15 November 1993 did not yield any changes in track alignment and classification of urgency.

The Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan 2003 it remained with the planned route, but all phases of construction were allocated to the most urgent needs.

On December 5, 2012, approximately six and a half kilometer long section of the A 2 (cross Bielefeld ) to B 61 ( Ostwestfalendamm / Gütersloher Road ) in southern Bielefeld was opened to traffic. The construction took five and a half years, two years longer than originally planned.

The remaining gap between Borgholzhausen and the cross of the A 33 with the B 61 is to 2019Vorlage: future be closed / In 5 years, since the B 68 especially in the city of Halle (Westfalen ) is no match for the traffic.

Closing the gap between Bielefeld and Borgholzhausen

Closing the gap between the cross A 33 / B 61 in the southern Bielefeld and Borgholzhausen performed in two sections.

Construction between Bielefeld (B 61) and Steinhagen / Halle

For the section between Bielefeld and Steinhagen there since June 2007, a zoning decision of the district government Detmold. A lawsuit filed by nine residents of the route against the construction rejected by the Federal Administrative Court, which have unlimited jurisdiction in actions relating to certain major infrastructure projects since a change in legislation in December 2006, in August 2009 as unfounded. The first sod was turned on 25 September 2009. When construction first three years were calculated, probably the opening to traffic not take place until 2016. The cost of the 7.9 km long section will be around 90 million euros.

Section between Steinhagen / Halle and Borgholzhausen

For the section between Hall and Borgholzhausen there since June 2011 a planning decision of the district government Detmold, the Construction began on 17 December, 2012.

Delaying in the planning of this section, especially the nature reserve Tatenhauser forest has affected, falling under the EC Habitats Directive. After the discovery of a Bechstein's bat colony in December 2010 in the area casum at Borgholzhausen the planning delayed further. On 12 October 2011 ranged environmental organizations from East Westphalia -Lippe - officially represented by the North Rhine-Westphalian Association of the Association for the Environment and Nature Conservation Germany - action against the planning decision, since essential conditions of nature and species protection are not sufficiently considered. Additional actions, such as by local residents, but were not charged. The lawsuit was negotiated in October 2012 before the Federal Administrative Court and rejected on 6 November 2012.

During the start of construction due to uncertainties regarding the funding was for some time uncertain, and a shift of several years threatened, the Secretary of Transportation of the State of North Rhine -Westphalia Voigt Berger said on January 3, 2012, that the financing of this section is secured, according to the Federal Ministry of Transport.

The cost of the 12.6 km long section amount to about 140 million euros, of which about 30 million for natural, environmental and species protection measures. The eastern part between Steinhagen (junction Halle- Künsebeck ) and Hall is the earliest 2017Vorlage: Future / to be completed in 3 years, for the entire section to Borgholzhausen is expected construction period of at least six years, so that the final closing the gap between Bielefeld and Borgholzhausen currently about 2019Vorlage: is / expected future in 5 years.

Further construction to the A 1

In the north of Osnabrück, the A 33 is to be extended by the extension end in Osnabrück- Schinkel to A 1. The method is of the Lower Saxony State Agency for Road and Transport - operated - Business Osnabrück.

The currently favored route is to run almost exclusively by agricultural areas and forests. Two new interchanges in Belém, and near the village of Icker should arise between the current end in Schinkel and the interchange with the A1. With the anticipated closing the gap between Bielefeld and Borgholzhausen is to be expected over the entire 33 A further increase in traffic, so closing the gap for A 1 is now particularly urgent is considered.

Construction between Osnabrück- Schinkel and Belém

In November 2010, the Lower Saxony State Authority issued for road traffic and a zoning approval for the portion of the extension of the A 33 from the current end of the freeway in Osnabrück- Schinkel to Belém. This section was added to the plan approval process for the reconstruction of the bypass Belém (B 51). The planning decision is final, so the progress of the financing depends by funds from the federal budget. The route determination was carried out on 17 December, 2012. In January 2013, the construction was started with preparatory measures, the official groundbreaking ceremony for the 2.2 km long route on 17 June 2013.

Closing the gap between Belém and the A 1

For the section between Belém and A 1 is a regional planning process was initiated in January 2008 at the request of the national authority for road and transport from the district of Osnabrück, which is to prepare the plan approval process. In January 2009, it was completed with the state planning determination of the preferred option. In May 2009, the State Authority requested the Federal Ministry of Transport, the implementation of the route determination process, which was completed in December 2012 with the route determination.

This subsection will be 9.3 km long and extend to about 2.4 km in length by protected by the Habitats Directive forests, which makes planning delayed.

Above all, environmental groups criticize plans for the further construction. A long legal dispute is still unlikely, as lawsuits against a planning decision would only be possible before the Federal Administrative Court. The start of construction of the northern section of the A 33 is currently expected at the earliest in 2019.

The intersection of the A33 with the A1 will be at completion between junctions Bramsche and Osnabrück -Nord. The interchange will be allocated on the A 1 is the number 69. This has already been taken into account at the time of number assignment for the connection points: The connection point Bramsche of A 1 has the number 68 and the subsequent junction Osnabrück- North was assigned the number 70.
