Gordano service station is hitchhiking black spot in the UK. The crash barrier graffiti is a testament to borded hitchhikers

The spot i use for M5 Northbound, the other spot at the start of the M32 (see map) is only good for M4 eastbound. Not the best spot in the world but there's a little road to pull in on just after the roundabout.

All the trafic goes to M5 (towards Birmingham), there's a service way so they can stop for you. I hitched here in dark at 2009 December and I was picked up in 30 mins to B'ham.

Junction 19 is BAD for going M5 North and M5 South . It is good for getting the 3 miles into Bristol on A 369.
Junction 20 Avonmouth is VERY BAD .

A good spot to hitch from there is just in front of the police station. Had luck just because a driver who didint even pass by us saw us and asked about our destination. Got a ride along the M5 going north.

We camped there too (there are some hills behind the station) and around 4 am a man woke us up in not a very frightening way, telling we weren´t allowed to camp there and had to leave in the morning.

Use it all the time, good for M4<>M5 change over. go to the services and ask people, or sit with a sign.

The senseless place is only for newbies to hitching.

services, don't remember the name. going north-south (services on both sides of the motorway, the bridge joins them) is no problem, but in the direction of London no chances

Heading south. Had to wait quite a long time, maybe not be the fastest, BUT excellent place to stay! I enjoyed staying here actually, there is small forest around where you can camp, or camp on the grass beside lorry place and you probably won't be disturbed anyway. Has free showers and Waitrose (good food).

Had a sign saying Cardiff. Stood by exit road, took about 30 mins to get a lift (raining)

We had a sign saying "M4 West", a car stopped after 15min and the driver said he could take us to Cardiff service station but didn't take us to the big one, we ended up spending 2h to get out of the small service station he dropped us at
