    Well Dunshaughlin to motorway near Dundalk is less than an hour so in and around an hour or so would be a good guess.

    My OH regularly goes Trim-Navan-Slane-Drogheda in about half an hour, and Dundalk is another 20mins up the road. Navan is the only traffic really.

    Sorry for bring up an old tread but considering changing jobs and working in Dundalk now instead of Blanchardstown.

    How do you find the commute OP and how long does it take?

    The office has since re-located to Drogheda but I did the commute from Trim to Dundalk for over 6 months. I found it to be an easy enough commute - I had been used to doing an hour's drive to Naas before that.

    It usually took about 50 mins to an hour and for the time I was going to work I didn't really have any traffic issues - it was mainly just waiting at lights in Navan and Slane.

    hope this helps!

    If you have to drive on the Dundalk bypass from the motorway (the dual carriageway from the motorway to the Crowne Plaza hotel) be aware that it gets very busy when the students are back in college from around 8:30 till just after 9:00.
