A52 (Switzerland)The A52 is a motorroad (German: Autostrasse) connecting Zumikon in the canton of Zrich with Hinwil and Rapperswil in the canton of St. Gallen. It starts out from the intersection with Zumikon and Ksnacht. It passes through Zumikon and Forch before heading for Egg, Esslingen and finally Hinwil. Near Hinwil, there is a huge motorroad roundabout with three different roads connecting to Rapperswil, Hinwil and again back to Zumikon and Forch. It would finish in Rti and Rapperswil. Portions of the motorroad are nearly like a motorway (without the central reservation), with two lanes going in each direction, making it four in all. Possibly due to this, the motorroad is often suprisingly smooth to travel on. The A52 is also referred to as the Forchstrasse (Forch Road) as it is a continuation of the Forchstrasse in a motorroad form. It runs in a southeast-to-east direction before the Hinwil crossing, continuing south toward Rapperswil after the intersection. Main route: Zumikon - Forch - Egg - Esslingen - Hinwil - Rti - Rapperswil Speed limit: 60 km/h at start in Zumikon, then 80 km/h and progressively 100 km/h. The Hinwil roundabout has a speed limit of 80 km/h. Tolls: Covered by CHF 40 annual motorway sticker.
