    Walk out to the Stillorgan Road, get the 46a or 145 bus. Get off once you go over the canal and walk down Fitzwilliam place to Fitzwilliam Street.

    Cheers. I take it none of the stops on Lower Kilmacud Road would be of any use for getting to work?

    75 is an orbital to Dún Laoighre and while the 47 does go to town, it's very slow and infrequent. The 46a/145 (and, further up, the 39a) corridor is the most regularly served corridor into town.

    Edit: 75 and 47 being on the Kilmacud Road, 46a/145 on the Dual Carraigeway

    Try this site:
    www.hittheroad.ie
    I have found it useful for working out routes.

    Or www.a-b.ie which will include leap card fare information. Also check with your employer if they operate the www.taxsaver.ie scheme, it will likely save you a lot of money.

    The 11 goes from Kilmacud Rd, but afaik it's much the same distance as walking to N11, and 46a &145 are much more frequent

    21/25

    @mufc do you mind me asking how long you were waiting after your application. I applied some weeks ago and have heard nothing as of yet, just got a mail saying they be in touch in early 2015.
    Also is it interview, medical, aptitude test and driving assessment or .... Thank you
