Hi

I was wondering does anyone know of public transport available from bunclody to Kilkenny?

Supposed to be going to Bruce springsteen gig in July and bunclody closet hotel free.(I was too late booking hotels)

I have hotel booked in Carlow though too? Is it easier to get to Kilkenny from Carlow or bunclody? Any help/answers greatly appriacted

The only realistic way from Bunclody to Kilkenny city by public transport seems to be:

Bunclody to New ross - Bus Éireann route 5:

Very limited I'd say. Carlow is far nearer Kilkenny (about 20 mins on the M9) whereas Bunclody is more like 45-50 mins cross country (bad roads) or via M9/N80.

Also far more buses and trains between KK and Carlow.

How come you say Bunclody was closest free hotel yet you booked one in Carlow i.e. way nearer!!
