Map

Schematic map of the A480The A480 from Aßlar to Reiskirchener Dreieck, drawn schematically through its junctions, with the reported closures, roadworks and jams.
  • Junction or interchange
  • Roadworks
  • Service area or lorry park
  • Charging station
  • Road-weather station

Schematic: the line joins the points of the Location Code List in their order – not to scale, not a navigation map. Where the list has a gap, the line breaks too.

  • Broken between Anschluss A480/L3053 junction and Anschluss L3047 junction: the Location Code List gives no course in between, so we draw no line there.
