    Someone new to the Nass road area has to drive into Harcourt street to arrive at 9 am for im portant work interview. Woud traffic be heavy then how long would they need to allow?

    What is the best route? looking at map route planner Davit Road/Dolphin Road/Parnell road/Grove Road/Richmond Street etc?

    What about parking in Harcourt street is itc pay and display or can you get a space where you pay when you return in Stephens green centre

    Thanks

    To arrive for 9am, I'd leave Newlands cross at 7:15 at the latest.

    Parking around Harcourt St is pay and display but you can park in Stephens green shopping centre and pay when you get back

    Why not park in the park and ride at Sandyford and get the Luas there

    From Naas you'd be better off park/ride at the red cow tbh, 2/4 e per day

    Luas is very quick too, OP would need to get off at Abbey St, then walk to Westmoreland St, and get a bus to Stephens green e.g. 145 etc

    Yeah but Naas to Sandyford is a right heartache to deal with, I'd prefer to luas it from red cow to town, then hop on a 145 to Stephens green and walk five minutes than deal with Naas to sandyford in a car :)

    Ack, if you left Naas at 7:15 you'd be there by 8:15, time for a coffee, croissant and calm down before the interview

    I have found with my work that driving is more efficient time wise for most of my time, and you've the freedom driving gives you

    However OP have you considered that bus that goes to the airport and stops at the red cow luas?
