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.
