From the shopping centre go north along the bypass (follow the path on the grass field), get on the junction bridge and walk to the other side of the bypass.

Another option is to use the local train called [http://www.skm.pkp.pl/dali.php?aa=mapa_trasy SKM], or regular train and get to Pszczółki or some other village between Gdańsk and Tczew. When you get off the train just walk out of the village in the direction of the road, it's visible from the station. Since first part of the motorway A1 was built there is less traffic on national road 1.

=== North and west towards Baltic coast and [[Koszalin]], [[Szczecin]], [[Berlin]] ([[Germany]]) ===

Get to Osowa Shopping Centre (see direction Toruń, Łódź by S6 for details). Once you're there go north along the bypass (follow the path on the grass field), go under the junction bridge and you will see Lotos petrol station where you can ask for a ride. It's also possible to hitch on the slip road next to the station.

From bus stop behind the end of expressway bypass S6. Go south to the main road, turn right (west). Just behind roundabout (where S6 city bypass ends) is short lay-by. You can try hitching there, but some 200m further is bus stop with plenty of space to stop and just behind crossroad with traffic lights. Make a sign as there is a lot of local traffic.

This spot is located in Wejherowo. Take any local train called [http://www.skm.pkp.pl/dali.php?aa=mapa_trasy SKM] going north and get off at Wejherowo (all SKM lines going north run at least to this stop), the ticket should cost around 3-4PLN or less with student card and the ride should take about 1 hour. Once you arrive, walk down the log hall way of the station exit up the stairs and you should be standing next to the beginning of the national road 6 going in the direction of Koszalin, Szczecin (if you are in a small town, turn around and go back to the other side of the station). Once there, walk 30 meters back to the bus stop loads of space to pull over.

This spot is closer to Gdańsk than bus stop in Wejherowo mentioned above. Take a ride with an SKM train and leave at Rumia Janowo. The bus stop is right next to the platform, at the left side. There are also traffic lights right before the bus stop - making a good hitchhiking sign is recommended, as the drivers have some time to spot it while waiting.
