Avoid the 78A. It terminates there but goes all over the place first, through some less pleasant parts of Dublin and has more than it's fair share of scumbags.

If you do end up taking it, hop off at B&Q and walk down to the centre. Can be very slow through Ballyfermot.

Most Lucan/Celbridge buses will drop you off on the main road passing the centre.

Why would you want to go to Liffey Valley anyway? It's absolutely horrible. Stay in town!

25/A 66/A 67/A will all work

25. get off at King's Hospital School.

25/25a 66/66a/66b 67/67a Get off at the stop after the M50 junction, there is a ramp up that leads to the car parks and the centre.

As said the 78a is best avoided. It stops closer to the centre but it does a 20 minute loop around Neilstown/Ballyfermot only to come out at the other side of Liffey Valley at B&Q and even from there it is slower than the 25/65 group from the N3.

Try the 78 from Aston Quay. It's a bit quicker than the 78A, but there ain't many of them.

Pearse Street (opposite the Garda Station), with stops at Westmoreland Street, Wellington Quay.

You gotta stop this going 'dutch' and only going half way. Tell her to go all the way! Oophs! freudian slip there.

Anyone know what the fastest bus out of town to liffey valley is ? You know one that doesnt go through every estate in the greater dublin area.....

Sean^DCT4 · 10-08-2011 10:50am

66x or 25x

LXFlyer · 10-08-2011 10:55am

25a OR 25b - both go along the Chapelizod Bypass and take 20-25 minutes from Aston Quay (both start at Merrion Square and stop on Leeson Street, Dawson Street and Suffolk Street)

Otherwise the 25, 66, 66a, 66b and 67 are about 5 minutes slower going via Chapelizod and go from Merrion Square, Pearse Street and Westmoreland Street.

The 25x, 66x or 67x are only limited to evening peak outbound.
