    Hi there,
    Can anyone tell me what parking availability is like at the Navan Road Parkway station in the mornings? Say between 8 & 8.30am?
    Thanks!

    Always seems to be plenty of empty spaces.

    I park there each morning. More than enough spaces.

    If it's any way practical to you, the two stations in Dunboyne have sheds of spaces free any time of day.

    The timetables don't seem to match up well when trying to get to Pearse in the mornings.... usually involves a 20 minute + wait time to change in Clonsilla :(

    It's not great for getting to pearse and beyond. I usually go to Lansdowne road. It beats using bus eireann though.

    Go to the docklands and walk (14mins) or Dublin bike (6 mins) across. Less time like a sardine on the train. Alternatively walk back to Connolly (10 mins) and get a Dart.

    Or just get an ebike or bicycle and cycle the whole way. Far more pleasant.

    Car park was completely full this morning. Had to park at the end of a row as I needed to get to work. Hoping Im not clamped

    I wonder if it's because of all the issues with Bus Eireann that people are driving in to get the train.

    Went to get a train at Navan Road Parkway last night (Friday) at 8.30pm and the station was locked. All of the glass doors from the car park into the station building were locked shut. No way in, and out apparently. Missed the train obviously and had to double back to get a bus from the stop outside.

    Is this normal? The website says the station is open until the last train passes through. Or is there any other entrance I'm not aware of?

    Are you sure? I arrived back to the station from Connolly at around half nine last night and was able to exit. The door can be very heavy and usually only 1 open
