The highway is collectively known as Nordharzautobahn (North Harz highway) due to the route being parallel to the Harz mountains from Vienenburg to Bernburg.[2]
History edit
In March 1926, a route between Seesen and Halberstadt north of the Harz mountains was first suggested as part of a greater network in Germany.[3] More detailed plannings of parts of today's route reach back to April 1953, when a planning office in Brunswick recommended a highway-like route between Braunschweig and Bad Harzburg; this route was built between 1972 and 1994 as A 395 and replaced the B 4 along its way. This part wasn't considered a part of A 26 until discussions about upgrading the highway-like Bundesstraße 6 between Vienenburg interchange (A 395) and Bernburg (Saale) interchange (A 14) emerged in 2017 and were officially realized on 1 January 2019, leading to the renaming of the A 395 (Braunschweig – Vienenburg) and B 6 (Vienenburg – Bernburg) to A 36.
The original planning of the A 36 considered a different route: In 1972, the highway was first named as A 106 and supposed to connect Bielefeld, Lage, Hamelin, Alfeld, Goslar, and Bad Harzburg to the Inner German border.[4] If built, this route would today connect the A 2 with a hypothetical A 35 south of Hamelin in direction of Hanover, the A 7 (Hanover – Kassel), and the A 369 (Braunschweig – Braunlage), not including the former B 6 route to the A 14.
A second planning from 1976 designated the route from Bielefeld to Hamelin as a part of the A 35, leaving the highway from Hamelin to Bad Harzburg under the official name A 36. This last official plan was the base for the later renaming, considering the B 6 as the eastward continuation of the suggested highway.[5] This plan was eventually abandoned in 1980, with only a minor route east of the A 2 (Ubbedissen, four-lane B 6) and west of the recent A 369 (Harlingerode, four-lane B 6) being realized for the purpose of being part of a major highway.
