Dublin to Adare, Avoiding Limerick?

Michele Erdvig · Host

BeachMiles,

Were you given a reason for not driving through Limerick? Or just "don't do it"? The only problem with driving through Limerick is during rush hour where you may get caught up in the gridlock. At those times of day you must bring your patience. It is the same in any city.

To avoid going through Limerick would require a large diversion that may take longer than rush hour in Limerick. And even though Adare is a small village they have a rush hour back up too!

Thanks Michele,

We are picking up our rental car at the Dublin Airport. We checked the milage, but how is the road to Limerick, and Adare? Wondering what time we need to be Leaving Dublin to beat the afternoon rush hour in Limerick.
thanks,

BeachMiles,

It should take about 4 hours to Adare on the main roads. If you plan on stopping anywhere add some extra time.
