    Hi Everyone

    Im located in Dunmore east and 30 weeks pregnant and severely anemic but need to go into the social welfare office on the cork road to sort out some maternity bits and pieces, and i dont drive.
    I googled the directions to it from dooleys hotel(thats where the bus in from dunmore easts last stop is..roughly) and it said its like a 45 min walk =/
    are there any city buses going up past the office that I could get?

    its a 20 mins walk if you're NOT pregnant. The Bus Depot is across from Dooley's Hotel. Also here's the City Timetables:

    Heya,

    The Browns road bus stops outside Kelly's on the quay and will you leave you off about 5 mins walk from the office.

    Also the Ballybeg bus at the clock tower might be faster. That stops opposite the intreo office!

    You could get the Dunmore Road bus into the Quay. Get off at that stop and wait for the Brownes Road bus, that'll bring you up and back around and theres a stop at College Street, 2 minutes from the office. It'll take a while but alot easier than walking!

    It's €2 per journey. The ballybeg bus is the 603.

    Yeah, you're quite right, I meant to say Browns Road bus (which also stops opposite Ballybeg), thanks for the correction.
