Well, do ya or don'tcha?

Yesterday: traffic on the M50 all the way from Leopardstown to Blanch
This morn: I left my house 10 mins earlier and still got in 20 mins late.

What's going on? Xmas shoppers already? Students getting free cars with their Choco Crispies? Answers people! I demand answers!

Recently the M50's been great! especially Lane one (incorrectly called the "slow" lane). I drive all the way from Tallaght to the Airport several times a month and stay in lane one for most of the journey and usually have it to myself.

I get there much quicker that way, average speed 120k ish...

Imagine that, traffic on the M50 between Leopardstown and Blanchardstown. Next time ring the gardai in advance and they'll have that part of the M50 closed off just for you.

Tune into LiveDrive at 103.2, it won't necessarily fix your traffic headache - but will help (so much more so than out of date/time AA Roadwatch) and the banter and music does make the N7 commute a little easier.:cool:
