The city is located along the [[A2 (Germany)|A2]], and there traffic jams quite often between [[Hannover]] and [[Braunschweig]].
The A39 (which connects the A2 with the [[A7 (Germany)|A7]]) is now completed and the gap between [[Wolfenbüttel]] and [[Wolfsburg]] near Braunschweig is closed. This may change the traffic situation in southern Braunschweig a little bit in a positive way, there could be very good new hitchhiking spots towards east, south and west in the southern city. Just check it out!
== Hitching Out ==
=== East ([[Magdeburg]], [[Berlin]]) or West ([[Hannover]], [[Dortmund]], [[Amsterdam]]) [[A2 (Germany)|A2]] ===
From the city center take the Bus 560 from Braunschweig Rathaus to Wipshausen and exit in Zweidorf - Peiner Straße. From there walk the Rothbergstraße until you see the service station, place yourself there if you want to go east. Use the tunnel of the Rothbergstraße to cross the highway and place yourself on this side of the service station if you want to go west. If the main gate of the service station is locked, you will have to either climb the fence or walk on the bridge and walk on the highway till the station.
''Comment: I lifed around Braunschweig for 5 years and I never used the spot above. I think the Bus ride is to long and also I wouldn't climb the fence and definetly would not recommend to walk the A2 because it is one of Germanys major highways and a little dangerous and absolutely forbidden. Also it is not difficult to get rides at the following alternatives.''
