    I'm trying to figure out Bus Eireann's fecking website.

    There is a 10 minute bus from the City Center to Blackpool SC. But the return journey takes 40 minutes. This doesn't make sense. (I was also looking for a bus from Kilkenny to Cork and found one that takes 14 hours. You can actually buy this ticket)

    Anyway, I'd like to talk to a human being about this bus route, so I came here.

    What bus do I need to get to Blackpool shopping center from the city center?

    And how do I get back?

    Thanks :)

    I think the return journey is 40 minutes because its not a straight return.
    It covers the northside before making its way back into the city...

    the 203 will take you from town to blackpool shopping centre and back to town in about 20 mins each way every 20 mins during the day.

    the 209 takes a more indirect route through the glen. Best not to bother with it.
