Hitching out

West toward Cheboksary, Nizhny Novgorod, Moscow (M7) E 22

From the station for local trains (пригододный вокзал), take an električka train to the stop Zajmišča (Займища). Walk back a hundred metres in the direction the train came from and walk up the stairs onto the bridge. This is the M7, where you can stop a southbound car. The cars are going somewhat fast, but they have an enormous amount of room to stop.
