    Hi, just wondering does anyone have an accurate time for when the bus leaves O'Connell street out to UCD in the morning around 9ish? I was told to take the number ten. Thanks guys.

    The 10 comes every 10 minutes at that time. You shouldn't have any difficulty getting one.

    If its an interview, or you are coming from beyond O'connell Street, leave extra time.

    One does, the 7.15am not serving Lucan village. Most others go to the 10 bus stop on Waterloo Road, which is about ten minutes from the campus.

    As it happens I got the 7.35am 66X (not serving Lucan) this morning and (after hopping on a 10 within five seconds of getting off the 66) I got into UCD at 8.55am. Barring disaster, that should get you in for 9.30am.

    As Victor says though, if it's an interview or something I'd get the earlier one just in case.

    The 66x from Maynooth at 7.15 does indeed go to UCD, but there were a couple of occasions where the bus only arrived in UCD at 9:20 or so due to the heavy traffic throughout the journey, this is from my experiences.
    As others have said, dont just give yourself 40 minutes to get to UCD from O'Connell street at this time of the morning, give yourself extra time if you need to be somewhere specific at 9:30.
