The '''A30''' is a part of the E30 from [[Cork]] in [[Ireland]] to [[Ufa]] in [[Russia]].
It crosses the [[A31 (Germany)|A31]] ([[Emden]] - [[Bottrop]]) near SchüttdorfSchüttorf, the A1 ([[Heiligenhafen]] - [[Saarbrücken]]) and the A33([[Osnabrück]] - [[Paderborn]]) in Osnabrück. At it's end in [[Bad Oeynhausen]] it is possible to go over to the [[A2 (Germany)|A2]], but you have to cross the whole city. A direct connection ''A30 -> A2'' is planned and seems to be finished in April 2010.
Traveling along the '''A30''' is different. Coming from the [[Netherlands]], it is very easy to get rides at least towards [[Hannover]] or [[Osnabrück]]. The part between [[Bad Bentheim]] (where it begins) until [[Osnabrück]] seems to be hard to hitchhike, especially towards the [[Netherlands]] the traffic will be less. From [[Osnabrück]] til [[Bad Oeynhausen]] you will find enough traffic because of the cars coming from the [[A1 (Germany)|A1]] going towards [[Hannover]].
*'''(3) {{Ramp}} [[Nordhorn]] / [[Bad Bentheim]]''' {{good}}
**Small traffic-island to stand on, some space for cars to stop behind. [[User:platschi|platschi]] was standing here several times and got lifts within only some minutes. Good for both directions!
*'''(4) {{Ramp}} [[SchüttdorfSchüttorf]]-Nord''' {{good}}
**This ramp is quite small, there is not much space to stop cars when they go onto the highway. No hard shoulder to stand on, just a tiny traffic island. But if there is not much traffic (and that seems to be quite often), people can and will stop for you. It is directly at the highway junction, so take care where people are going to! [[User:Platschi|Platschi]] was standing here twice and got rides eastwards within seconds. For the other direction towards ''NL'', you're definitely wrong. Nobody is going up here, better try to hitch through the city towards [[Bad Bentheim]] and take the ramp there!
*'''(5) {{Junction}} [[SchüttdorfSchüttorf]] (highway junction)'''
**You can't get out here, and if you do so: it's illegal! Take care, often border police driving around this junction. Here the '''A30''' crosses the [[A31 (Germany)|A31]].
*'''(6) {{Ramp}} [[Salzbergen]]''' ?
