Door to door time 2hrs 25mins.
Using train would have taken from 4hrs to 4hrs 30mins allowing 1 hour from my Kilcock home to Kildare station, parking car etc.
There is little doubt but the improved road network will result in fewer people using the train. Train journeys in Ireland are simply too slow.
