=== NorthEast/West/East North towards [[London]], [[Cardiff]], Bristol[[Worcester]] ===Head ==== Option 1: London Road roundabout ====Walk down to the end of ''London Road and walk all the way down it '' until you get to the large roundabout. You want the first exit for the '''A46''' which goes to the [[M4 (GB)]]. There isn't really any place are two lanes and so a vehicle can stop for cars to pull you in one of these lanes (there is no laybyat this junction) but walk down a little and cars . Most drivers will be able to see you and pull in if they desire. From this Roundabout you will get a lift driving to Junction 18 of the '''M4 ''' ('''J 18''') from this roundabout - the motorway onramps at '''J 18''' (''East or and West'') have plenty of space for vehicles to pull over. Using a sign here could take you a long distance in either direction , to [[London]], [[Wales]] or even ''North'' up the [[M5 (including North GB)]] [[User:Xael Impala]] often hitches up to [[Worcester]] using this route). ==== Option 2: Weston/RUH ====[[User:siinvincible|Simon]] recently [July 2017] had great success getting a quick lift from just past the RUH Hospital to the [[M4 (GB)]] junction, driving via Lansdown (past the racecourse). Drivers will often use this route to avoid going on the often congested London Road. It is also much used by drivers coming from the west side of Bath. === South-East towards [[Trowbridge]], [[Warminster]], [[Salisbury]] === Walk to the start of ''Warminster Road'', which is the '''A36''' going out of Bath (past ''Sydney Gardens''). On the left of this uphill road there is a place for cars to pull in. Wait times can vary but rides will often be going long distances down the '''A36'''. Also a good spot if hitching to [[Stonehenge]]. === West towards [[Bristol]] === Go The Golden Fleece pub on Lower Bristol Road (near Lidl). Opposite this pub is a red letter box which is a good place to hitch from. There is space for a driver to pull over in the Bathwick Tyre shop. A sign here for Bristol would be helpful. === South-West towards [[Glastonbury]], [[Devon]], [[Cornwall]] === As with hitching to Bristol go to the red letter box opposite the Golden Fleece pub. Nearly every driver will be driving to the roundabout on Bristol Road ('''A 36''') where the Globe Pub is. The Globe roundabout is at the end of the dual carriage way and most drivers will know what you mean if you ask to be dropped at the Globe roundabout. There is a bus stop just before the roundabout which is the best place to be dropped off.  From the Globe roundabout walk to the Wells Road ('''A 39''') exit. The best place to hitch hike from is the entrance to Bath Spa University. From this spot you can hitch to the [[M5(GB)]] (avoiding Bristol)and to [[Glastonbury]]. Note however that this will likely take a few rides as most people are driving locally. [[User:Xael Impala]] has always had swell rides hitching out this way. The M5 will take you down to [[Devon]]; from Devon you can hitch to [[Cornwall]].
