=== South towards ([[Düsseldorf]], [[Cologne]], [[Frankfurt]]) {{Autobahn|3}} ===
From the main rail railway station take the subway line U11 (direction: Messe West/Süd/Gruga) or the tram line 107 or 108 (direction: Bredeney). Exit at Martinstraße and change to the bus line 142 (direction: Kettwig). Leave the bus at the station "Abzweig Flughafen" (single ticket for all the way is €2.20).
You will pass a ramp a bit earlier but don't get off there ("Polizeischule") nobody can stop there. At "Abzweig Flughafen" you walk to the ramp direction Düsseldorf and place yourself on the ramp (see on the map). Be carful, a lot of traffic but even a bit difficult to stop. It is a good spot, but there may be better spots in Essen. [[User:Quarim|Quarim]] waited 20 min there.
=== East towards [[Hamm]],[[Hannover]], [[Berlin]] ===
As there is no convenient spot inside the city, drive a few minutes to [[Bottrop]]. See that article for detailed informationsinformation.
Probably you can also hitch out of the city somewhere along the ''Ruhrschnellweg'', the [[A40 (Germany)|A40]]. If you take the metro to "Breslauer Straße" you arrive at the ramp to the motorway. Traffic is good, but there is almost no place to stop for the drivers, so waiting time might be long and it can not be recommended.
