    Anyone live around Ongar/Clonsilla area that travels to Park West on on daily basis who could tell me some average driving times during peak hours.

    Can leave anytime from 8am to 9.15am.

    Also, the opposite direction in the evening.

    I'm looking for the best routes & times to minimise driving time.

    Most days i should be OK to get there for 10am. But some days, especially Mondays i may have to do 9am start.

    I go from Mulhuddart so not exactly the same but it is about 25 min for me.

    Generally i get on to the M50 and off and the N4 (Palmerstown/Lucan) exit. Then either head to liffey valley/Coldcut Bridge or go through Palmerstown and up towards Cloverhill road to the back of park west.

    Sometimes a little longer but generally quite good. I leave at about 7:30 so does get a bit heavier the later you leave it.

    Give yourself 45 - 60mins. I leave at 7.45 and generally make it by 8.40. I avoid the M50 and go past Castleknock College / Mount Sackville then through the Park (avoiding Knockmaroon Hill) onto Conygham Road, through Ballyfermot and into Parkwest. You could go M50 and do it quicker at a cost (some days) but I wouldn't recommend. You could go through Lucan / Fonthill / Cloverhill and into Parkwest but would be surprised if it saves you much time.
