Used by approximately 190,000 vehicles per day, it is one of the most frequented interchanges in Hesse and Germany.[1]

The portion of the A3 between the Wiesbadener Kreuz and Kreuz Fürth/Erlangen is traditionally one of the most congested sections of Autobahn in Germany.[2]

Between 2016 and 2018, the interchange will be upgraded and improved to avoid the daily congestions during the rush hour.[3]
