== Hitchhiking out == ===North : Route 172 towards Tadoussac, Côte Nord===
From Downtown, cross the bridge (Boulevard Saint-Paul - Route 175) to Chicoutimi Nord, and make your way to the corner of Boulevard de Tadoussac (Route 172) / Rue Roussel. There is a stoplight at this location and parking spots for stores where people can pick you up.
===South : Route 175 towards [[Quebec city]], [[Montreal]]===
From Downtown, take bus 15 to the Rona superstore. Then, go south on Boulevard Talbot up to the Marcel Simard garage/gas station (below the crossing of Boulevard du Royaume / Boulevard Talbot), and hitchhike there. If you meet someone whom is going south, but not where you want, ask them if they can drop you at Petroles RL in Laterrière (corner of Boulevard Talbot / Rue du Boulevard). From there, everybody should at least go to [[Quebec city]].
===West/East : Highway [[A-70(Canada)|A-70]] ===
From Downtown, take bus 15 to highway 70. The highway entrances are huge and wonderful for hitchhiking!
