Morning commute to Slane village

kormak

Is anyone aware what public transport is available for commuters coming from Dublin to Slane in the mornings?
Allegedly Collins/McConnons/Mcginleys, etc... all bypass Slane these days when leaving Dublin heading North.
Bus Eireann only offer connections which is a bit awkward. Any other ideas?

Collins drives through Slane - I presume they stop in the village. Im not sure of times atc, but they do have a website

Stops at the school and the crossroads.

Thanks, but Collins first bus in the morning leaves Dublin @ 9am and bypasses Slane using the M1 through to Ardee.
The first bus of the day that goes through Slane village Northbound, is not till midday!!

I know a number of people who use it in the morning and all say its reliable and pretty much as the timetable.

I tried it on Monday and the bus was even earlier than the timetable , so looks really reliable !
