    What a terrible, terrible website. I find it impossible to use. I realise AH may not be the place to put this, but I couldn't find a more suitable forum.

    Can anyone tell me the bus times from Athlone to Limerick for tomorrow (Monday the 12th)?

    Why does it have to be so akward to use? :mad:

    Totally agree, the worst website I've ever, ever used!! Jesus, can these idiots do anything right?

    I suppose it's fitting for a terrible public transport system to have a crap website..

    The dublinbus.ie site is just as bad too many clicks to get to the basic info, no proper search, I wonder if the same crappy company desgined them all and charged a fortune for it.

    It's not exactly intuitive is it? Like so many websites for services in this country

    Try the route planner OP.

    The dublins bus web****e was developed by biznet, a quick look at their own website ( http://www.biznetiis.com/ ) should tell you a lot :pac:

    again i dont find a problem wit IR's website, you put in where your coming from and going to and if you want you can buy tickets online. They are the main functions of a website and it does all these things fine

    OP It might be worthwhile using the "Journey planner" option on the site.
    Not sure if this URL will work:
