    hi guys,

    does anyone know the quickest way to get to Marino IT by bus.
    Ive tried searching the dublin bus site, but it gives me two express buses(i think theyre express cos they have an 'x') that leave from malahide and clarehall. No idea where else they stop cos the website just crashes when i click on it :confused:

    Im looking to get there from the city centre (say o connell street or anywhere near)

    thanks;)

    Do you mean Marino Institute of Education (MIE)?

    If so, then from their website, http://www.mie.ie/About-MIE/Visitor-Information/Local-Services.aspx:

    Public Transport to/from City Centre:

    A convenient bus service - the 123 bus - operates from Griffith Avenue to the city centre. The nearest bus stop is on Griffith Avenue on the opposite side of the road, to the left of the Charlemont gates. Returning from the city suitable bus stops for the 123 Bus are to be found at Bewley’s Westmoreland Street, O Connell Street (Outside Penney’s Shop) and Cathal Brugha Street.

    From Heuston Station - take the Luas to Abbey Street, and just outside Penney's, O'Connell Street is the 123 bus stop, that travels directly to Marino Institute of Education. The journey doesn't take more than twenty minutes, usually.

    From Connolly Station - you could take the Dart to Contarf Road station, and turn left then right, up the Malahide Road. Marino Institute of Education is approximately fifteen minutes walk away. Alternatively, the following buses run very regularly from Connolly Station - 27C, 29A and 42A. These take you via the Malahide Road, which is a short walk down Griffith Avenue, to Marino Institute of Education.

    From Dublin Airport - Bus routes 41 & 41B go to the City Centre from the airport, via the Swords Road. Get off the bus at the Regency Hotel, walk down the Swords Road, take the next left onto Griffith Avenue. Continue until you reach Charlemon Estate, turn left into the estate and Marino Institute of Education is on your right. The walk from the bus stop should take approximately ten minutes.

    All information on buses can be found on Dublin Bus website here.

    as pines was saying and I am assuming that you are coming from coolock,clarehall direction.

    get any of the buses that go down the malahide road in the direction of fairview

    get out at a pub called graingers which is the next stop after the griffith ave junction. marino institute is about a 10 minute walk up griffith av. else if you have a bus ticket hop on the 123 at the terminus on on griffith avenue ( look across the road from graingers and you will see it ) the gates to marino institute is 3 stops up.
