If you can find somewhere to hitch a lift to a nearbye service station (on the Paris bound motorway) this is much better. [[User:Pete the Temp|Pete the Temp]] and a friend failed on the above spot and got a lift to a service staion the next day and found a lift quite easily.
== Dunkerque, Calais, England, A25 ==
Take the subway to Saint-Philibert (red line). Then take the bus 61 (to this place, there is only one direction possible) to CENTRE COMMERCIAL (ENGLOS). Here, go back to the roundabout (20 meters). There is a direction to DUNKERQUE. There is not so much place to stop but the traffic isn't very high and cars are slow. If people don't reach Dunkerque directly, doesn't matter, that's in the good direction anyway. Go with them and take the entrance... Even with slow traffic, bad weather, you will find a lift very quickly. There are two area services between Englos and Dunkerque, and no one between Dunkerque and Calais.
Most of the truckers you will see in service areas will go in England and going with them permit to through the sea for free!!
Event if it's long to waiting for them, it could be nice!
== About the subway ==
There are check-tickets, often. And that's not so easy to know where they are and when... If you are french, they are not nice = if you don't pay the bill, they will take money on your bank account directly (for me, it was one year after but VERY expensive... so even if you don't live in Lille but in France, an advice: pay sooner as possible...) I don't know what happened for strangers... Maybe, they won't worry you too much.
you can buy an 3 inter-stations ticket. It's for 0.70€, three stops (without the departure station) but they can't really check where did you start your trip :) and it's half less expensive.
