    I was wondering if anyone can help me by giving advice on how to get to IBM technology centre based in Mulhuddart. I have no car at the moment. Are there any public transport services? (I am based in Drumcondra). Thanks in advance!

    The 38 and the 38A go into IBM campus. As for getting from Drumcondra, you'll probably have to walk to Phibsboro/get the train to Castleknock or something. No direct bus service from Drumcondra.

    Check out the 40D bus service.. It goes from Parnell St, up Dorset St, then up Withworth Road and into Finglas and then near to the industrial estate where IBM is.. Journey time is about 45 minutes.

    gazzer... the road down to the industrial estate from the 40D bus stop isn't opened yet... so you'll be walking through an industrial estate..

    The 38/A would be your best option, you can walk to either Phibsboro or Parnell Square to get it...

    You're thinking of the IBM office in Ballycoolin.

    Stark is correct. Your best bet is to get the 38/A from Berkley Road http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=53.359913,-6.269374&spn=0.002836,0.010042&z=17&om=1.

    Many thanks! Would you know how long it takes from Berkely Road to get to IBM campus? Does the 38/38A stop at this campus?

    Takes about an hour from the city centre. The campus is the very last stop.
    If you're starting work at 7 then the 6 bus will get you in for about 6.45 due to the lack of traffic.

    If you're starting at 3 you'd want to get the 1.30/1.40 bus as it's a bit of a slog. 38A is much better as it avoids Castleknock and Blanch Village.

    Also if you're in work at about 12 or 1, I'd get an much earlier bus because there does be a lot of traffic at the junction of berkley road and north circular road, which holds you up for a bit.
