European route E 31 is an international Class-A road in Europe, part of the United Nations E-road network. It has a north-south reference.
It runs from Rotterdam, Netherlands to Ludwigshafen, Germany.
Firstly, it leaves Rotterdam, where it links to the E 19 and E 25 roads. It heads roughly east through the Netherlands, passing through Gorinchem (where it connects to the E 311), and Nijmegen before crossing the border into Germany.
It passes first through Goch and Krefeld in North-Rhine Westphalia and heads southwards before entering Cologne, where it links with four other E-roads: the E 29, the E 35, the E 37, and the E 40. It then continues south, going through Koblenz (where it connects to the E 44), and then on to Bingen am Rhein, where it makes its final connection, to the E 42. It then reaches its final destination of Hockenheim, where the E31 connects with the E50.
