    Stillorgan/ North Wicklow
    Monday, September 13, 2010
    Dublin Bus is pleased to announce the first phase of the Network Direct project.

    What does Network Direct mean for you?
    Starting on the 19th of September a more direct, high frequency, punctual bus service is coming to N11 Stillorgan, Dún Laoghaire, Bray and North Wicklow with improved cross city connections. Please Click (http://www.dublinbus.ie/PageFiles/5998/Stillorgan%20Corridor%20Map%20Final%20Version%2002%2009%202010%20copy.pdf) to view a diagram or here to see FAQ's on services in these areas.

    Quicker journey times
    Quicker journey times to key destinations.

    High frequency services
    Routes 46a and 145 will have weekday frequencies of 10 minutes or better until 21:00.

    Improved connections for customers
    Route 46a will provide a high frequency connection between Dún Laoghaire and the
    Phoenix Park via Belfield, Luas Green line, Luas Red line, the Mater Hospital and Phibsboro.
    Route 145 will provide a high frequency connection to Heuston Station from North
    Wicklow, Shankill, Cabinteely, Stillorgan and UCD Belfield.
    The extended route 47 will offer an all day service from Stepaside to Pearse Street via
    Stillorgan Village, St Vincent’s University Hospital and Ballsbridge.

    Route Improvements
    Route 46a will be more direct. It will operate on the new Kill Avenue/Kill Lane QBC and use the Stillorgan bypass at all times, giving journey time savings of up to 15 minutes.

    Route 63 will provide a connection between Dún Laoghaire, Monkstown Farm,
    Cornelscourt, the Luas and Kilternan.

    Route 4 will be extended to Monkstown Avenue providing connections to Blackrock, Ballsbridge, City Centre, DCU and IKEA.

    Route 145 will provide a more direct service, saving approximately 10 minutes, by operating via Bray Main street.

    Route 47 will now operate to the City Centre.

    Route 84 will serve the Luas at Cherrywood before continuing to Stillorgan Village and UCD Belfield.

    Journey times will now be significantly improved with trips to the city centre from Dún Laoghaire and Bray taking on average less than 55 minutes.

    Routes 46x and 746 will no longer operate. Alternative services can be used:
    46x – Customers can take a 46a to the city centre and change to Routes 41/16a or Airlink service to travel to Dublin Airport.



    746 – Customers can take a 46a to the city centre and change to Routes 41/16a, Airlink in service for travel to Dublin airport.



    * Customers should please note that the amalgamation of Routes 39a/10 will take place in October.

    Timetable Changes
    All timetables will be redesigned so that they will be easier to understand. Please note that new timetables read from left to right and then line by line as in a book or magazine. Weekdays are given their own column separated by colour. All routes will now have stop-specific departure times at selected locations for e.g. route 46a will have specific departure times from D’Olier Street and UCD Belfield making it easier to plan your journey.
