You will basically run into the toll gate that leads to the highway. Just tell the friendly workers at the toll gate where you are going and wait until they organize your ride.

Option 2: Take Bus 4, 12, 117 oder 110 till their last stop dong gang zhén. (36°02′31.93″N 103°55′18.51″E) from there go left into yan er wan lu and walk for 1 km until the road ends. Turn left and after 50 m you will see the tollstation in about 100 meter distance. You can also take bus 143 and go off directly at the crossing towards the tollstation at yan er wan (36°02′52.69″N 103°55′16.84″E). There you will find enough space for cars and trucks to stop.
