    No. They have a time limit on the car park. Might be three hours.

    I'd ask for permission from the security staff at Nutgrove. There's a 3 hour limit though!?

    What direction are you coming from? You can always use the luas park and ride at cabinteely. Best thing is probably call your new workplace and ask them can they suggest parking places

    Unfortunately with the hours id be working there'd be limited space. was hoping to get something outside dundrum, and get the bus in, thought it might be cheaper, im coming from the red cow so thought rathfarnam would have been a good option.. not really sure of anywhere else!

    Red Luas into town, short walk and Green Luas to Dundrum might be your best option.

    If you have an 8hr shift, parking would work out at about €12 if you parked in the shopping centre. It would cost you €4.90 if you get the luas from the red cow to dundrum and back (That's not including parking at the red cow), and it will take you much longer to get the luas than drive.

    I could be wrong, but I seriously doubt Nutgrove would make an exception for you!

    Realistically, there are alot of small estates off barton road east. It's possible to find off road parking on them if you don't mind walking for a couple of minutes!

    Most of the streets near Dundrum are pay and display now but should be possible to find parking 10 or 15 minutes walk away near Nutgrove.

    You've probably found somewhere by now but just in case, the Ballally LUAS car park charges E2.00 for four hours, and E4.00 for 24 hours. It's the cheapest I've found and there's usually parking there in the mornings or after lunch. coming up to lunchtime (say 12.00-12.45) it tends to be full, but then a few people often leave.
