=== West towards [[Poznań]], [[Berlin]] ([[Germany]]) {{Motorway Number Poland|2}} {{European Route Number|30}} ===
*'''From motorway junction'''
From city centre e.g. from <i>''Nowowiejska-Północna</i> '' street near <i>''Plac Wolności</i> '' (Square of Freedom) take tram 46 direction <i>''Ozorków</i> '' and get off in <b><i>'''''Rosanów</i></b>'''''. The journey takes about 55 minutes (about 20km). The tram stop is located just behind roundabout where motorway junction starts. There's an emergency lane, so even trucks have enough space to pull over.
* Another spot is (esp. when coming from Warszawa) north of Lodz near ''Strykow'' where the motorway currently begins. Just hitchhike at the exit of the roundabout for the motorway in all directions. {{Roadworks}} Currently (January 2010) there are some roadworks just next to the hard shoulder of the on-ramp, so there's actually nearly no space for cars to stop. Best bet is to get up on the bridge a little bit and try it there.
