Product Overview
This pin was to commemore the construction of 3000 km of the autobahn. Pinback missing but displays well.
From 1936, and the first 1000 km, the goal was to build a further 1000 km of autobahn per year. The 3000km plaque was issued in 1938 however some 9.5% the carraigeway was only single lane to meet the target of 3000 km. In 1939 only 255 km was constructed but road building increased in 1940 to 446 km. By 1943 the autobahn network stood at a total of 3858 km although 14% was single carraigeway.
