    The luas to Sandyford would be the best option and quickest.

    Either bus or train to the city centre and then Luas to Sandyford - it isn't being extended until the end of the year.

    Bus 5, 11, 46b, 116, 118 to Sandyford - all very weak services.

    Any bus to Donnybrook and then a 47.

    A 7b/d, 46a/c/d/e/x, 84, 145 or 746 to the N11 and walk up.

    Or train to Blackrock and bus 114 to Sandyford, but the bus tends to be busy and fickle. Or a train to Dun Laoghaire and the 75.

    You employer may have a private bus service from the city centre - certainly some employers do.

    When I worked there I found by far the most reliable way was to go to the city centre and get the LUAS.

    I know you say public transport is your only option.
    But I would weigh all the advise up against getting yourself a cheap car.

    I work in that business park and depending on what building you work in it can be a long walk to the luas and a tricky one as the large Leopardstown road roundabout can be tricky for pedestrians.

    It can take me 15 to 20 mins just to get to the Luas.
    luas then is 25 mins to the st stephens green.
    then up to the maynooth line & home.

    Busses arent great in the area.
    So my recommendation is that unless there is a very good reason you cant drive.... then drive!

    +1 I work there and when I don't bring the car it can take me 5 or 6 times the amount of time to get home
