Reutlingen is a middle sized city south of Stuttgart. To get towards Stuttgart and Ulm it is best not to stand next to the direct "Schnellstraße" B27 between Orschel-Hagen and Römerschanze, but go to the other side of the city. If you're far away from the city center take line 1 (towards Orschel-Hagen) or line 7 (towards Efeu) to the stop Karlsstraße/Fernmeldeamt. This busstop is the place to stand as it is at the intersection which leads to the B28. If you ever need to go somewhere by bus you can find the overview of Reutlingen's bus lines here
