* [experience] I found upon arriving at this station that the metro continues and turns right blocking your path West to get to the gas station, so you end up walking to the next station Altinsehir and crossing under, adding another 20-25min walk. So you might as well go straight through to there, then walk through the industrial yard. Much closer. That said I had bad luck, waiting over one hour.

Option 1 Take the Bursaray metro to Küçük Sanayi* and walk around until you find a suitable place to hitch (you would have to exit the south side to reach the pedestrian bridge to the gas station westwards or see below about next station). Although, one hitchhiker experienced that in the end of july 2014, a lady came up and told him that the cars passing by only went for factories and homes(?) and not exactly the way to Izmir. She advised him to find another place or go to the busstation and take a bus, and after he went to the busstation he was guided back to the same spot, only a little further, from which he stood an hour before a pick-up - which isn't normal in Turkey.
Alternatively, you can continue on the metro to the last stop, the University, as the stop is situated right on a well lit stretch of highway-and you'd be further along on your way than you would be getting off at an earlier station.

Option 2
If you are able, find a ride to Minteks Tekstil/Restaurant which is at the merging of the D200 and O-5 increasing your chances. However, there doesn't appear to be any public transport to there, no minibus that I asked would go there.
