    I just moved out to Rahoon lately, and i'm very confused about the bus system. Does anyone know if buses go to NUIG? And if i want to go into the city center which side of the road do i stand on? :confused: Are the buses reliable? Thanks

    I mostly use the Bus Eireann buses, not the red ones, so these answers apply to Bus Eireann:

    Yeah all the Rahoon buses pass NUIG on the way to the city centre.

    You can stand on either side of the road, they turn at the roundabout past Dúnaras. I usually choose one of the bus stops with a shelter.

    They are fairly reliable but you would want to be 5-7 minutes early because they don't usually wait until the scheduled time.

    i think it's 5W that heads out towards Rahoon.

    there's a different bus (i think 4x5w) for sundays and in the evenings.
