Dualway – Luas Link Timetable

The village bus link is available from the gates at Citywest Hotel, going to the Luas stop at the Square in Tallaght.
Timetable - Route No 311

The route 311 link is dead on that page but the dublin bus website should clarify.

If you give me your final ticket then you could go straight to the city West Hotel without going via Croke park

It would be a much more direct route

If your staying in the city west I think they put on buses. I'm nearly sure they did after the 08 final anyway. Cost a few euro.

They do put on buses from the Citywest, think it was about €15 for my sis to get it.

But if you're driving, here's a tip - if queues are starting at the Red Cow exit, don't take the N7 exit, go past and take the next exit and then cut right at some junction that will take you to Newlands Cross.  There were terrible queues in '08 and we had a few who needed to use facilities after a few celebratory drinks.  It earned valuable minutes!

quickest way is to drive id say

Shouldn't be any problem at Red Cow now with the new interchange.

Plenty of helicopters around to ferry you to Westin - CityWest a jaunt from there.

However make sure helicopter doesn't approach from the west - Gardai will be alerted!
