    Hi,

    We're thinking of moving to Calderwood Estate on the Donnybrook Hill. Does anyone know what the typical morning traffic is like there during school term times? 8.30am ish? how long would it take to get out of the estate and onto the Donnybrook Hill, and how long would it take to get to Church Road Junction in Douglas Village? Thanks.

    Hi, I didn't get any replies to my question but we bought a house in Donnybrook anyway and are here now 3 weeks. The traffic on Donnybrook hill seems to be worse at about 7.45, but by 8.30 is gone, and because the lights at the Grange Road junction are green for very long in favour of Donnybrook, it moves pretty quickly if traffic does get a little backed up. All in all, it's a lot better than the Grange Road can get sometimes. Hope this helps.
