is an autobahn in Germany. During its entire course it forms a part of the E 42. Overview The A 60 begins at the former border crossing Steinebrück four lanes as a continuation of the Belgian A 27 from Liège. The state border runs on the 411 meter long Ourtalbrücke, which crosses the border between Belgium and Germany. This section of the route to Wittlich is also called the Eifel motorway. On the German side is behind the valley bridge a parking lot, which was originally created as a customs facility. A similar institution exists on the Belgian side on the other side of the Our.

The town sprawls along the Rhine's west bank. It has been Mainz-Bingen's district seat since 1996.
