Shuttle bus between campuses

GusFring

Hey,

Can anyone tell me if there is a shuttle bus between the Belfield and Blackrock campuses? If so from where on the campuses? When do they run? How much?

Thanks!!

There isn't. The Dublin Bus Route #17 runs through Belfield and stops near to Blackrock campus, but is notoriously unreliable.

The 17 is bad, but much improved from ~5 years ago.

I guess it would be between €1.60 and €2 each way. Look into student bus tickets, for example, a 30-day Rambler:

If you have an android phone, the "Next Bus Dublin Free" app on the play store is great for showing you how long until the next bus comes. I use it all the time, no waiting around

It's only a 5 minute cycle between the two. Could save you a few euro and allow you to clear your head!

Got that absolute bastard of a hill on Mount Merrion Avenue though.

It's easily bypassed by taking a right just at the traffic lights
