I actually now think this is the best option, as it saves you a few bucks and you have to sit on a train for an hour otherwise anyway. You'll likely be dropped in Papakura.
# Walk to the end of Hobson Street, where it crosses Pitt Street. Cross the road to where there is a left only turning lane onto the motorway. Stand on the pavement about 3-4 meters away from the lights. The cars almost always have to stop here before going onto the motorway. I've used this spot twice and it only took 20 minutes each time.
EDIT on 21/06/2021: the author must have meant that you should stand at the Pitt street, right at the left lane that is turning to the motorway.
At the on-ramp at the top of Symonds Street, close to the CBD. Walk down the on ramp and there is a big footpath you can stand on and plenty of space for people to stop.
EDIT on 21/06/2021 - the Symonds street option seems useless now as the pavement is fenced now and as soon as the fence ends, the motorway begin. Hence there isn't any spot there for the car to pull over.
