Public Transport
Ashbourne is served by Bus Éireann who provide a regular service (Route 103) from Beresford Place, Dublin, every 30 minutes at peak times to the town. Some of these services continue on to Ratoath, Kilmoon Cross and Duleek. At the beginning of March 2010, a regular service to and from Navan via Dunshaughlin and Ratoath to Dublin Airport that had previously not passed through Ashbourne was rerouted to serve the Marriott Hotel at the northern end of the town, and to then go through the town to the airport and Dublin City University. The service (route 109A) runs every hour from early morning to late evening. The 104 service that ran from Ashbourne to Blanchardstown Shopping centre was discontinued at the same time, and replaced by the some of the 105 service being extended from Ratoath to also serve Ashbourne. Route 177, with a low frequency, also serves Ashbourne from Dublin, and goes on to Slane, Ardee and Monaghan, with extensions to Clones. There is also a very limited service (Route 107) from Kingscourt to Dublin via Ashbourne.

Famous quotes containing the words public and/or transport:
“Private faces in public places
Are wiser and nicer
Than public faces in private places.”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
“One may disavow and disclaim vices that surprise us, and whereto our passions transport us; but those which by long habits are rooted in a strong and ... powerful will are not subject to contradiction. Repentance is but a denying of our will, and an opposition of our fantasies.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
