    I need to get to "C" on this map to collect the car.

    What best way there? From DB site looks like 40d will drop me at A.
    Need to get 145 in and 40d back out? Or anything better?

    Is the timing for 40d reliable, 40 mins to there roughly?

    I think that the 40D will bring you closer to C than A due to the ongoing diversion:

    Route 40d
    From City Centre
    Normal route to Cappagh Hospital then left into Northwest Business Park, right onto Cappagh Road and right into Ballycoolin Industrial Estate, then into Corporate Business Park 2 and Corporate Business Park 1 and back onto normal route.
    To City Centre

    40 minutes should be plenty

    Diversion is finished now... DB should really update their website... all busses are going normal route again.

    Its rather stupid that they stopped the diversion. They'd pick up hell of alot more customers going through that huge industrial estate.

    40d is your only choice from town. It takes anywhere from 30min to 40min depending on traffic. You will have to walk from A to C.
