THEY MOVED TOLL STATION 8KM TOWARDS EAST, so going to Dumovec is no longer a good option. Get on a bus #216 or #276 from Kvaternikov trg and get off at a stop called ''Ivanjorečka pošta'' (post office in Ivanja Reka), cross the street and follow the road going on the right, it's called ''Rimski put'', it will take you straight to Tifon gas station. There you can ask drivers to take you to the toll station (in croatian: naplatne kućice) or hitch on the road.
You have three four options for these destinations.
* First option is to get a bus on one of the main bus terminals in Zagreb. The name of that terminal is ''Kvatrić'' or ''Kvaternikov Trg''(square), it's close to the centre of Zagreb. There you have to get on bus #216 or #276 which ride you to ''Ivanja Reka'' or the main on-ramp on the motorway. Of course ask the bus driver to leave you in ''Ivanja Reka''. In this place you have 20 minutes of walk through some fields. But don't worry, it's a delightful walk. After you reach the ramp you can easily get rides directly to the border with [[Serbia]], Belgrade and the border with Bosnia.
* Second option is to get the tram #2, #3 or #13 to ''Savišće'' or ''Žitnjak''. Get out at the last stop and then walk for about 15 minutes towards the motorway. On the motorway you'll find a bus stop and there you can easily hitchhike towards the on-ramp in ''Ivanja Reka'' or you can even stop cars who are going to Belgrade or Bosnia. Ask the locals for extra tips and explanations.
* Third option, even better than going to ''Ivanja Reka'',is going to ''Dumovec'' with bus #276. This spot gets you closer to the tolls. So, get off in ''Dumovec'' (the last stop) which is a small car-park like thing, walk back a bit in the direction that the bus came from from maybe 50m and turn right. You will know it is the right road/path as you can see the motorway in the disatance. Follow it through the roundabout under construction till you get to the bridge over the motorway, turn right and follow toe motorway 1.5km to the toll. As of 20th April 2013 the road is under construction, presumably making a new exit/entrance for the motorway. The workers didn't seem to mind. There used to be a fence, but no longer due to the road works.
 
* Fourth option, go to Savski most and get on IKEA bus. It will take you to IKEA, and this is right on the highway to Belgrade, next to Dumovec. This bus ticket costs 10 kuna and you can use 5 kuna discount in IKEA for food or coffee.
Bus leaves Savski most station at Mon-Sat: 9:00, 10:00, 12:00, 14:00, 16:00, 18:00
Sun: 9:00, 10:00, 12:00, 14:00, 16:00
Here are the stops:

**I hitched 3 times in direction of Belgrade, so just one tip - if the car that is giving you a ride goes to Slavonski Brod (half way before Belgrade) ask him to drop you off at EAST EXIT of the city. in Croatian - ISTOČNI IZLAZ. because, if he drops you off at west exit, 95% of cars go to direction of Zagreb, I waited there 2 hours once, and the second time 3 hours ;)
