Kinsale Road Roundabout

Toto Wolfcastle

I'm doing that Hibernian Ignitian course this week and because it's out by the airport I'm thinking there might be a chance that we might head to the Kinsale Road roundabout. (If anyone knows otherwise please tell me!)

I'm a confident driver, and I will deal with the roundabout, but because I rarely use it I'm a bit confused about the lanes.

Anyone have a quick crash course on what lane to be in when going to town from the airport and going to the airport from town?

Going from the airport to town you should be in either of the two left-hand lanes, probably the further left one as it means you end up in the left-hand lane on the dual carriageway. Same goes for coming the other way.

they took 3 people that i know through ballygarven and carrigaline because of all the speed changes in the different areas. if you just drive along that back road a few times and take note of the speed limits.

That's what I thought. Thanks a million.

I'd love if they took me there! Thanks for that.

same here, I did this course a few years ago and we went through Ballygarvan, Carrigaline and on to Ringaskiddy all via windy back roads...after all that's where most people have accidents and stuff..we didn't go near the good roads!

it's a good course but I noticed lads on the course with me hopping into their little gay boy racer cars and speeding off once it was over...a waste for the ignorant fools of the land.

So coming from the airport the right lane onto the roundabout is for the tunnel etc? My parents use the middle lane so I have in the past too but the markings on the road say the right lane is the one to use.

I sound like I'm stressing over this but I just want to get it right!

If you mean on the approach to the roundabout, rather than on the roundabout itself, then yes.

That's grand so. Thanks for the help.
