Quickest bus to DCU?

johnny_ultimate

Right, Im travelling from Bray each day so have to get another bus from the city centre. Which one takes the quickest routes as they seem to vary considerably?

projectmayhem

from the city centre you can't go wrong with the 19A

the 19a takes ages, go for the 13a

i used to live in Bray, no ****ign way i was gonna do that commute! i went for shanowen!

god i thought my commute was bad (bray to dit kevin street) but god from bray to dcu that must be a nightmere.

can't beat the 84x into town (only stops on southern cross though and bypasses bray) leaves you off at stephen's green i think. from there i haven't a clue how to get to dcu though.

the 19a is the fastest bus from town to dcu(or the 4)

Dont be at yourself

I would have thought the 11!

19a/11/11a both take around the same time and are both the fastest

19a, the 11/11a or the 4.

Best busses from and to town imo.

Take the first bus you see and run for it. They all (4, 11/A, 13/A and 19A) take about the same amount of time.

If you're waiting a while and there's still no bus in sight, take the 3, 16, 16A (OCS) or 33, 41 (Busaras) and get off at Whitehall junction. Don't get sucked into Beaumont (on the 16, 16A) or you'll never make it. The 3 actually runs slightly along Collins avenue but it turns off (north) opposite St. Aidans school.

There might also be a 116 from Westmoreland St to DCU (Collins Avenue) entrance but it only runs twice, 8.20 and 9.20 or something like that. It does drop you right to the gate though. Not sure if it still runs, you could ring DB and ask them?

He's right, they all take the same amount of time depending on traffic.

Personally I like the 11 buses since they go up through Drumcondra past Pats and Mater Dei. Students everywhere in the morning!
