Getting to Birr

Choose where you are coming from, the day and the time, and this searches the National Transport Authority’s published timetable for that journey, from door to door: the walk to the first stop, the vehicles, the changes and the walk at the other end. Driving and walking are worked out between the same two points, so the three can be compared. It is the schedule as filed rather than live running, so it has no idea whether the 09:15 was cancelled.

About these directions

Public transport times come from National Transport Authority. Timetables cover 2026-09-18 to 2027-09-19. These are scheduled services; check with the operator for cancellations and changes before travelling.

Walking and driving times are estimates. A town search starts at its centre; choose your location or a point on the map for a more precise starting point. Eircode search is not available.

How journey planning works

Destination, access and nearby stops

Routes here end at the middle of Birr, which is where the map puts the settlement. For somewhere in particular in the town, its own page has the same search aimed at it.

Questions people ask

Is there a bus to Birr?

9 bus routes call at a stop in Birr somewhere in the published timetable: 72, 323X, 823, 843, 844, 845, 847 and 850 and others. Which of them runs on the day you are travelling, and at what time, is what the search on this page answers.

Is there a train station in Birr?

The map records no station inside Birr. A journey here will use a station elsewhere and a bus or a walk for the last part, and the search on this page works that last part out over real footpaths.

Where can you park in Birr?

4 car parks on the map, and 2 charging points. A car park the map marks as private is not counted as one you can use.

How current is this?

The timetable is the National Transport Authority's published feed, held here for 2026-09-18 to 2027-09-19 and read on 2026-09-21. Nothing on this page is live running: a cancellation or a delay on the day does not appear, and nothing here is labelled as though it did.
