Changes

Take bus no.10 from the central square (the bus stop is next to McDonalds). Get off at the last stop, in a suburban area called Novo Selo (sometimes also referenced as "naselje Naselje 9. maj"). The bus ride should cost around 50 RSD. Walk further straight on in the same direction and cross a bridge over the motorway. You can hitch from after the bridge.

After passing town of Prokuplje there , number of vehicles is getting somewhat lower. You're better taking a lift from vehicles registered to a foreign plates, as not many Serbian registered vehicles cross into Kosovo at all. Considerable number of trucks going into Kosovo also pass here. What is important to notice here is the traffic structure on this particular road. Serbian vehicles are few cars in most cases heading not further than town of Kuršumlija and they nearby villages. These that pass Kuršumlija in most cases head to Prolom Banja (mineral springs health resort site) or Đavolja Varoš/Devil's Town, natural rock formations site that is a tourist hot-spot nowdays. Both of these are less likely pretty much off the main road. These vehicles going to stop. You can still get onward lifts the border with Serbs driving to national parks Kosovo (Merdare village) and further, are very low in the areanumbers.  Therefore, but have in mind that if your destination is Kosovoyou catch a ride that heads to some of these previously mentioned sites, you may have to walk easily get stuck on the road at these last 10-or 15 km to the border crossingkilometers before Merdare/Kosovo checkpoint, without much traffic at all.
