I'd go the opposite way, anti clockwise, St Annes Rd, left onto St. Patricks Rd, then left onto Withworth road.
Drumcondra road has a new median now, and the right turn into town would be easier from Whitworth road, where the lights are already.

Yep, makes sense.

I personally believe BAC should be allowed to access the Luas lines and stops the same as buses do in Munich

Ditto, I say the same about the Jervis/Abbey Street bus station to Capel Street.
