    Hi - I am coming in from the M1 and want to park my car at a Dart station to get the train onto the Aviva for the Germany match.

    Which station would be best for car parking spaces and is safe to leave the car. I am looking at Malahide, Portmarnock or Howth Junction but any other suggestions gratefully received

    I plan to be at the station about 6.00 so hoping that commuters will have mostly gone home freeing up some spaces

    Thanks in advance

    Portmarnock has the most space
    Malahide is probably the nearest to the M1, might not have space
    HJ has no carpark

    Thanks for reply - are Portmarnock and Malahide safe to park a car and is either safer than the other. I have parked beside Howth Junction in the past but it just doesnt look that safe

    Clongriffin should have space. I wouldn't leave a burnt out car in Howth Junction.

    There's a car park at Clontarf Road but I would think this would be full from commuters until 6.30/7 and with people going to the match will likely fill quick.

    Clongriffin has an underground park and ride.

    Both safe. More space in Portmarnock.

    whats your nearest train station without going in for the dart? You can get a commuter train from pearse at half 10 and half 11 if it suits. Or at half 9 if the score is bad.
