    Saw this pop up on my twitter feed.

    UCD setting up a shuttle bus from Sydney Parade to O'Reilly Hall car park. No doubt useful for some. Runs from 8-10am and 4-6pm, €1 a run. Though it doesn't say how frequent it will be.

    Really good idea - it may actually change my commute if it's half decent and reliable.

    This is a great idea. i think it's beneficial for commuters but also for students on campus as sydney parade dart stop is quite close to Tesco. I've bad memories of walking up that hill back to campus with heavy shopping bags with rain sometimes added in.

    That's fantastic - I used to leave my bike overnight at Sydney Parade when I was living on the DART line, had regular panic attacks that it wouldn't be there when I arrived. A good transport link on that rode makes UCD very DART accesible.

    I wish they'd run a shuttle to smurfit too (okay so it's been one day)

    Can't quote the timetable verbatim, and there's one on the noticeboard outside the shop in the library, but it seems it runs from 8am-10ish and 4pm-ish to 5 in both directions.
