{{BAB intro|52}} is an autobahn in western Germany. It starts at the Dutch-German border near the community of Niederkrüchten, district of Viersen. From Niederkrüchten, it runs northeast.
Its westernmost part serves as an important commuter route into Düsseldorf. The autobahn becomes Bundesstraße 7 shortly before the Rheinkniebrücke, which leads into the Düsseldorf city centre. Traffic on the A 52 is routed through the Düsseldorf city centre on the B 8 and B 1 secondary roads up to Düsseldorf-Mörsenbroich, where the A 52 becomes a road of its own again.
The autobahn has three parts:
- Dutch-German border – Niederkrüchten-Elmpt – Mönchengladbach – Düsseldorf-Heerdt
- Düsseldorf-Mörsenbroich – Dreieck Essen-Ost
- Gladbeck – Gelsenkirchen – Marl-Nord
A new connection from the Dutch border to Elmpt opened in May 2009.[http://www.limburger.nl/article/20090518/REGIONIEUWS03/412235502/1030/VIDEONIEUWS "Duitse A52 sluit aan op Nederlandse N280"] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110717110830/http://www.limburger.nl/article/20090518/REGIONIEUWS03/412235502/1030/VIDEONIEUWS |date=July 17, 2011 }}, De Limburger, May 18th, 2009 (in Dutch) An extension connecting the interchange Essen-Ost with the interchange Gladbeck has been proposed for several years but has not been built yet due to the need for several kilometers of tunnels below densely populated areas.
