Bundesautobahn 27 (translates from German as Federal Motorway 27, short form Autobahn 27, abbreviated as BAB 27 or A 27) branches off the A 7 at Autobahndreieck Walsrode to the northwest, crossing A 1 at the Bremer Kreuz and continuing eastwards of Bremen, toward Cuxhaven.
Due to the large ports (especially in Bremerhaven) alongside the Autobahn, there is a lot of heavy truck traffic present.
Its northernmost part, between Bremen and Cuxhaven, largely replaced the Bundesstraße 6, although some maps still show the B 6 within the city limits of Bremerhaven.
