From Dublin Airport

Take the M50 motorway (follow signs marked from airport exit) southbound heading in the direction of Wicklow/Wexford. Leave the motorway at exit 16 (Cherrywood/ Loughlinstown/ Ballybrack), veering left at the lights and onto Wyattville Link Road. Drive through three further sets of traffic lights, crossing over the N11/Bray road to reach Wyattville Road, staying in the right lane [See journey on Google maps(opens in new tab)This link opens in a new tab]. Drive through a fourth set of lights and at the fifth lights, make a U-turn, so that you are now heading back down Wyattville Road in the opposite direction, staying in left lane. Prepare to stop just before the next junction (150m) and turn left into the main entrance of Eurofound (stone pillars).
