How long is your daily commute to work/ college


I spend about about a hour, waiting around, just to go 10 mins
and walking would not be quicker either

Its so ****ing stupid

Kiera

6 min drive.

Irish_wolf

10 mins waiting 1 hour bus ride then a 10 minute walk. Not so bad I usually get a nice nap.

Tom Cruises Left Nut

25 mins on train, 20 mins on luas and then 20 minute walk

Not counting waiting for trains etc. That wrecks my head

Devil08

Im a gigolo, works comes to me

garv123

Ickle Magoo

On a busy day - a 10 minute drive, and that includes dropping the kids on en route. :cool:

ordinary_girl

About an hour/hour and a half on the bus.

Cookie_Monster

8 mins by bike or 9-12 by car depending on lights

Uriel.

about an hour on a bus - 2minutes walk from house and 2 mins walk from job. So not bad really.

Can drive it in about an hour as well... but bus is more cost effective and a hell of a lot less stressful.

JJJJNR

1 hr at about 100 km/h or 45min at 180 km/h !

Pinturicchio

15-20 minute walk.

seamus

25 minute cycle each way.

beefjerky

15 min walk
55 mins train

CrazyRabbit

15 mins if I drive legally.

7-8 mins the other 364 days of the year.

Funkfield

20 min walk
20 min on Luas
20 min walk

x2 a day

20 hours commute a week.

Averaging that out works out at 40 days a year spent on way to and from work.

********************************

EDIT: The above is incorrect.

2 Hours commute a day is 10 hours a week.

Works out at, you guessed it, 20 days a year commute time.

mehfesto

40 minute walk to and from college.
Pleasant enough walk all the same - and I use the time to get my podcast fix.

NothingMan

6 minute drive or 10 minute walk. You'd think I'd just walk wouldn't you?

c0rk3r

14.52km

2mins walk to bus
6mins waiting on bus
2min walk to next bus
5mins wait on bus
30-40min bus journey
10-15minute walk to work
10mins - additional time depending on days

or

36-40min cycle ! usually cycle unless the weather is ridiculous

squeakyduck

2 minute walk to the bus.
About 15-20 minute bus ride. 30 minutes if the traffic is heavy.
3 minute walk.

big_show

5 - 10 minute cycle x 2

Thread needs a Poll!

giant_midget

20 min drive from balbriggan to airport.

Home at 4:30 every single day! I feel sorry for people i see leaving the train stations at 7ish in the evenings. I would hate a long commute to work.

Azureus

Takes 20mins-30mins in total, including walking to the bus stop and waiting times Used to be 90 mins to and from college so Im loving this working jazz!

I hour a day each way. Makes 2 hours. 5 days a week makes 10 hours of commuting, not 20.

You work in Anglo-Irish or the Dept of Finance?



FWIW I work from home, so zero commute. Any meetings I have in Dublin I always have at 10.00 or later so I dont get caught up in traffic either.

Happy days.

WolfForager

Wickla-UCD
Morning 1hr (leave at 7.20 if i left any later it'd take well over an hour)
I tend to leave college as early as possible to miss the traffic so usually 40mins home.

During the midterm this week i'm getting in 40 mins handy, no traffic whatsoever! Can leave home at 8, extra 45 mins in bed!

Which begs the question during the rest of the year...

WHY THE F**K CAN'T LITTLE FIACHRA AND SORCHA GET THE BLOODY BUS TO SCHOOL LIKE EVERY OTHER CHILD IN THE COUNTRY??!!

How? Assuming you work 5 days a week its only 10

tman

"Cummute":p

Anywhere between 40 mins and an hour each way depending on how lucky I am with buses/tubes
Beats the 90 minute each way commute of my last job after we got relocated!!!

loopyloulilly

30 seconds working from home
40 minutes driving to head office

It takes me 8-10 mins to get to my workplace. I am currently renting and will continue to do so in an area that wont effect my commute time. I view this as an important part of my life, I dont want to spend an hour- 2hour of a commute every day which is an absolute waste. But if your living in Dublin I guess there is no option given the high cost of living within the M50.

Dolph Starbeam

Thank god i live in the country, i couldn't live with anything longer than a 30 minute commute, at the moment i work pretty much from home so 0 minute commute for me, last few years it was about a 10 minute drive, thats it.

rubadub

20-25min cycle
40-60min drive
1hr luas
1hr 10min walk
1hr 20min bus

Korvanica

20 minute cycle...

my exercise done for the week :P

Copper23

Used to be an 1-1.5 hour drive depending on traffic.

Now its a 10 minute ride on the underground or a nice work from home day. Sweet

Cant see the celtic tiger cubs driving their daughters and sons to school like this for good.

jillyb

6-10 min drive depending on if sloooooww drivers/lights

I could not commute anymore than 30 mins... impossible to get myself out of bed as it is!

rainbow kirby

45 minutes on the bus to the city centre, plus about 10-15 minutes walk after that.

saywhatyousee

20 mins walk or 30mins in a car

Turtyturd

Minimum of two hours each way...bout two and a half at the most.

davetherave

Currently on a work placement so only 8-10 minute walk

If in college then anywhere from 45 minutes to 120 minutes based on the combination of bus eireann/train/Dublin bus/luas I take and how bad traffic is.

Lawrence1895

I'm cycling from Artane to Clanbrassil Street, depending on how packed the roads are, it takes between 30 and 40 minutes.

The distance is 3.8 miles, as far as I remember.
