Motorway A1: From the Lotte/Osnabrück intersection across part of Lower Saxony to the border between North Rhine-Westphalia and Lower Saxony in the area of the Osnabrück-Nord junction and in the opposite direction.
Motorway A2: From the Bad Oeynhausen intersection to the border between North Rhine-Westphalia and Lower Saxony in the area of the Bad Eilsen junction and in the opposite direction.
