Across the Asphalt to Terminal 3

All Roads Lead South

Frankfurt Airport is Germany’s gateway to the world. Air travelers depart from here to nearly 300 destinations around the world. Many requirements need to be met for a pleasant airport experience. Besides straightforward, efficient check-in, a feel-good ambiance, and helpful airport staff, it’s also important to get to the airport relaxed and without stressing.

Excellently connected

The new road linking the northern part of Frankfurt Airport with Terminal 3 and CargoCity South has been named “Am Luftbrückendenkmal” in reference to the Berlin Airlift Memorial located next to it in the southern part of the airport. Running parallel to the A5 motorway, the new connecting road can be used by the general public, including airport employees, visitors and airline passengers. The road was built to ease congestion from the existing infrastructure and provide relief for local residents.

Room for Modern Mobility

The new eight-level parking structure has room for up to 8,500 vehicles. Special spaces for electric vehicles are included. The new facility is divided into two parts, of which the northern part is about 400 meters long or twice the length of the southern one. The two are joined by pedestrian bridges that continue directly on to the new terminal. A new bus station with 27 berths ensures seamless connections to destinations in the surrounding region, and about 45 parking spaces are reserved for taxis right on the drive-by platform. Of special interest to visitors from the surrounding area is that the new terminal is integrated in the regional network of cycling paths. It even features a dedicated parking area for 300 bicycles right beneath the Sky Line station. Thirty of them are equipped with charging stations for e-bikes.

Ten kilometers of new roads ensure convenient arrival by car.

A glimpse of the future: the enlarged Zeppelinheim interchange keeps traffic flowing, also to CargoCity South.

From the drive-by platform spanning 16,500 square meters, travelers and visitors can directly access the departures level.
