Rush hour dublin...

In peoples experience (and I know if varies from day to day and time of year) but if you were asked what time the roads were more congested in the city centre...would it be:

between 7:30 - 8:30

or

8:30 - 9:30


I know those are weird specific times to pick but it's to settle an arguement.

Id say between 7:30 -8:30
but theyre pretty much the same from 7 until half 9

chabsey

hmm.bugger....i would have thought they were worse 8:30 onwards

I'd say 08:30 to 09:30 is busier. I'd go as far as saying 09:30 is busier than 08:00

Well that's more like what I would have thought. Was driving past the IFSC area today at 8:30...it was nuts. But that area is probably nuts at all times cause of the Luas stuff.

Stephen's Green [directly below Leeson Street - turning towards Stephen's Green SC] is chocka block all the time now because of the fecking Luas works!!

I love the fact that @ the mo it takes me 20 - 25 mins to go from Tallaght to Ranelagh for work ... but when the schools are in, it can take anywhere between 50 mins to 1 & 3/4 Hours ... fecking school mums & there massive jeeps!!

About a month ago, I saw a woman drive out her driveway [BMW Jeep] in the back of Rathgar to drive her kiddie to the primary school about 100 yards away & then drive back up & into her driveway again [I was parked @ the time] ... this seems to be widespread throughout Dublin ... why else the nightmare traffic during the school term which miraculously disappears when there are school hols :mad:

Well from this Sunday onwards Stephens Green West will be completely closed to traffic and the rest of the green will be reversed or two-way traffic.

There is a wave of traffic that would hit the city centre at 8.45, which would pass through the suburbs before that time, so it's all down to where you are counting from.

7:30-8:30 deff
