    Hi all,

    My son is starting work experience in Thomand Park, is there any bus from Ennis that stops near there in the mornings??

    I know the Dublin bus might pass it but its an express!

    I'd imagine that there is a bus that serves LIT in the mornings that goes from Ennis. There is also bus stops at Ivans Shop and also outside LIT but i dont know what buses serves them.

    Bus to UL from Ennis Station stops at LIT, which is just up the road from LIT. Use to ;eave at 7.30am a few years back, I'd say the times haven't changed

    Thanks! Had a look at the Bus Eireann route planner but it says the bus thats serves LIT takes 3 hours from ennis to LIT. Thats cant be right!

    I will give them a ring tomorrow to see if they can help, anyone know if Moroneys or any of them go?

    I used to use Dave Moroney but I'm not sure if he's still in the game. Joe Moroney doesn't appear to do daily college services just there and back for those in accomodation. http://www.pktravel.com/schedules.html seems your best bet. Hour and twenty minutes and he gets there for before 9. Not sure of the prices though.

    My sister used to take Bus Eireann when she went to LIT and I don't remember her leaving the house so early so as to facilitate a three hour journey so it is unusual.

    I'm not sure if the Ennis-UL bus stops at LIT anymore- I regularly see it in the mornings and it goes straight in the Ennis Road and up through town to UL...

    I'd reccomend getting the train/bus to Limerick and getting the 302 bus- stops near Thomond

    Folks,

    Back on topic please, anyone know of a bus service?

    Op, there's a LIT forum here http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=615 might be worth checking out there

    Quite right, apologies. I only suggested http://www.pktravel.com/schedules.html because getting the train and then a city bus is very messy. The train is about 40 minutes then there's a ten minute walk to pick up the 305 plus waiting time and then 15-20 minutes to Thomond depending on traffic not to talk of the seperate fares. Twice a day for a few weeks might get a bit much.
