Galway-Dublin Airport? Best Route

Patri

Have to go to Dublin Airport tomorrow by car from Galway and was wondering if the new m6 is the best way to go but when to get off, and if any tolls must be paid? Thanks very much!

Oh and feel free to move this if its in the wrong place mods

Motorway all the way, 3 tolls.

The motorway is the handiest way to go, all you have to do is join the motorway in Galway and when you get to Dublin, join the M50 which will bring you to the Airport.

There are 3 tolls, one in Ballinasloe and another either before or after Mullingar, they are 1.90 and 2.90. Then there's the EToll on the M50 which is €3, and must be paid online, by phone or in a shop which offers the service
