Luas at rush hour

Hrududu

I was wondering if anyone had any info on what the green Luas line is like at rush hour? The one that goes to Sandyford. Say around 8.20am and then back into town around 5.30pm. Does it get packed at Stephen's Green? I'd be getting on a few stops later, would I need a crowbar to get on? Also how do the numbers affect the commute time? From where I am it was about 15 minutes out to Sandyford, but this was in the middle of the day, I'd imagine with more people getting on and off that figure would rise.

Short answer - no you will not need a crowbar - you are going against the main traffic flow.

Luas gets busy both ways in the morning. I used the green line for over a year.

It really depends on what stops, I also don't think I got on that early. The times are fairly static, if it's 15 minutes at mid day, it should be 15 minutes at rush hour.

The trams leaving SSG around 8.30am and leaving Sandyford at 5.30pm are quite busy but never uncomfortably so. You'll be fine. Outside of those times it's a lot quieter. The time is fairly constant, end to end is usually between 18 and 20 minutes.
