    It would depend on where you are coming from! ;)

    If it from Dublin city centre, get the no.45 bus from Eden Quay and get off at Crinken Church.

    Hi guys,

    I work in East Point and I have to get to the Harrold's Cross Rd in Rathmines to pick up my freshly serviced bike! ;)

    I know the 16/16A drives up the Harrold's Cross Rd but what's the fastest way from here in East Point? Get a DART to Connolly Station then walk to O'Connell Street to get the 16/16A? But then I'll be stuck in traffic for ever won't I?

    Help!

    In the end I got a lift from within East Point to the DART station. Got a DART to Tara Street. Walked to D'Olier Street and got the 16A to Harrold's Cross Road.

    Journey Time: 1 hour 25 minutes. The public transportation in Dublin (and in the country in general) is a fu*%ing disaster AFAIC... I'm not used to waiting hours to cover 2 or 3 km anymore. Thank God I have a motorcycle!

    And to make things worse, I was in Paris for the past 4 days (just came back yesterday) and got used to the Metro, the RER, the bicycles for rent available virtually everywhere, etc...

    Why can't it be like this over here too?!?!?!?

    If I want to goto the Pavillion shopping centre in Swords? I have an interview tomorrow and havn't a clue how to get there. I'm living in Artane at the moment, but I'd imagine I'd have to get a bus into the City Centre to get out there.

    Any suggestions?

    thanks

    get out to Whitehall church and the 33, or any of the 41's go through swords! get off on Swords main st and you'll only be 5 minutes walk to the Pavillions.

    If you're going from town, all those buses go from outside the lotto head office on abby street near connolly station

    Some of the 41s pass by The Pavilions - those with "Malahide /Feltrim Roundabout" as a stage no.

    its cool, it must have taken you ages to do that, are you going to be make money out of that? without that motivation our project to that here never really went ahead?

    it doesn't recognise airport as destination, could you put important things like that in yourself?

    Agreed.

    That's a great site Vinny - the sort of thing Dublin Bus should have as part of their own site - have you approached them about buying it from you?
    You've put such a lot of work into it, you deserve to get something back.
