You can also take the free of charge Ikea bus to Kungens Kurva (it even has free wi-fi!). You find the bus schedule from the [http://www.ikea.com/se/sv/store/kurvan Ikea website]. The web page is only in Swedish, but it says the buses go once an hour, first 10:00 and the last 19:00. The bus leaves from Vasagatan 18, wich is near to the main train station. When the bus gets to Ikea Kungens Kurva, there's a petrol station on the other side of the motor An excellent spot for northbound traffic is the Shell gas station close to Upplands Väsby. You can get to Upplands Väsby by commuter train (takes around 20-30 min), then find a bus 568 to the end station Löwenströmska Sjukhuset. When at the end bus stop, cross over the parking lot and follow the path along E4 motorway, then you will see the gas station (there is also a McDonalds there). Many go to Arlanda or Uppsala, but there is enough traffic going up north too. Another option is to take a commuter train (Pendeltåg) to Märsta. Then get out of the station through the little swing door that you see on your left side when walking towards the station house. Turn left and walk South along the railroad until there is a bridge which crosses rails on your left side. You can start hitchhiking on the other side of the bridge. Most drivers who will pick you up will most likely go to Arlanda airport. In this case, get out of their car at the roundabout by the E4. (You can also walk this roundabout while hitching, it's 1-2 km.) Walk uway. Walk behind Ikea and you find a pedestrian tunnel going across the motorway. The petrol station is a pretty good spot to hitchhike. We noticed a little problem there, though. The motorway splits up in Södertälje to E4 southward and E20 westward, 30km from Kungens Kurva. Depending on which way you want to go, it's a good idea to catch a ride straight to the direction where you need to. It's impossible and dangerous to hitchhike where the two motorways split, people drive too fast.
