    Directions to UCD ground please

    Please can someone let me have directions to the UCD ground from the centre of Dublin? Are you on a train or bus route from town? Thanks in advance. How far is the ground from the city cnetre?

    Take the number 10 bus from O'Connell Street (heading south, Belfield or Ollscoil will be written on the front of the bus), get off at the last stop and follow the pedestrian signposts.
    There's a map here;

    Start off on Baggot St. Head towards Donnybrook. Go through Donnybrook and keep going past RTÉ and the Montrose Hotel. At the Radisson Hotel take a right. The ground is just down the road on the right.

    46A would be the best bus to get from town. Get off at the Radisson Hotel and it is a 3 minute walk from there. 46B will get you there as well and stops outside the ground, but is less frequent than the 46A, which comes every 10 minutes. Journey is around 4 miles long.

    There's a mistake there actually. The above would apply if you're heading out of town from Leeson St.

    On Baggot St take right onto Waterloo Rd (which is the 2nd right after Baggot St Bridge). Continue to the end of this road and take a left. Go through Donnybrook etc...

    You can go down the M50, turn off at the Leopardstown exit, follow Leopardstown Road to the Stillorgan dual-carriageway (N11). Turn left onto the dual carriageway. After about 3 km, turn left onto Foster's Avenue (opposite the Radisson Hotel). Belfield Park is a few hundred metres down on the right.

    If you're getting into Dublin at rush hour, you might be faster going into town and following the directions in the post above though.

    If your going on the M50 the above directions aren't the fastest. Take the exit off the M50 for Rathfarnham, Ballinteer and Dundrum (No. 13, second after the NBA Arena). Go straight at the roundabout, going on the road parallell to the M50. Turn left at the next roundabout. Keep going until you get to the Goat pub- take a right. Go through the next 2 sets of lights then Belfield Park will be on the left.

    Here's the link to where you would go off the M50.

    No, but they're less complicated. You'll save the time by not getting lost!

    From either, get the Luas to O'Connell Street and get the bus from there. The fastest bus is the 46A, get off at the Radisson Hotel and Belfield Park is across the main road. If you don't know Dublin very well the 10 isn't much slower and Belfield is the last stop so you can't miss it.

    46 A is marginally closer to Belfield Park though. Get off the bus cross the road , there is a Protestant church on the corner walk up Foster Avenue, on the side with the fence and there will be a gateway on the right. Walk in the gate, take the left hand fork inside the gate and you will come to the ticket office.
    20 Euro for adults tickets and 10 Euro for all other tickets.
