    Hi there,

    Does anyone have any idea of this commute at various times ie 7am, 7.30am, 8am, 8.30am and home times?

    Thanks

    Thanks for that John.

    What time would that be at?

    It takes me 40 minutes to hit Coolock on a late morning Sunday trip. So Ballymun could be done in 35 minutes.

    Thanks guys.

    Any ideas where the bad traffic spots are? Have they all pretty much cleared up since the 3 lanes opened?

    Already do to Sandyford everyday so just areas beyond that that I need to know of?

    Blanch can be sticky at times but mostly fine now the 3 lanes are open.

    I leave at 1.15pm and its a doddle. No difference in time really. About 5 minutes more at 4-5pm and then whatever traffic at Bray. The M50 is gift and I never thought I'd ever say that going back a two or three years!

    probably a combination of the extra lanes and the recession - traffic generally expands to fill the available space, there just aren't enough people working around the M50 now to fill the extra capacity (virtually no builders for a start).
