Matthews.ie – Getting You to College, Stress-Free

Fast • Comfortable • Reliable

Starting college is exciting — but figuring out daily travel can be a headache.

Whether you’re a first-year student finding your way, a final-year student focused on success, or a parent wanting peace of mind, Matthews.ie takes the stress out of the journey. Matthews.ie provide safe, reliable, and affordable transport from your local town straight to DKIT, Drogheda Institute, DCU, St Pats, Trinity etc — so you can focus on your studies, not on the traffic.

Matthews.ie have throughout the years helped a lot of students commute to and from college in Dublin, Drogheda & Dundalk.
The option to go by bus allows each student to save on accommodation, continue to enjoy the home comforts and keep the part time job which is key to help anyone through the term. With the service students can choose from a variety of times to suit their academic calendar allowing for late starts but also the timetable allows student to stay on if needed and travel home at a later time. Now in Dublin with the location of the Leap stop, more and more students have access to many areas of the city.

Getting to TU Dublin Grangegorman with Matthews Coaches


The Matthews City Bus is the simplest way to travel to the new TU Dublin Grangegorman Campus.

  • Take our 900 or 901 service (last stop: Dublin via Drogheda).

  • From O’Connell Street Lower, cross at the lights to the Luas Green Line stop.

  • Tap on with your Leap Card and board the Luas toward Broombridge.

  • After two stops (Dominick Street, Broadstone-DIT), you’ll reach Broadstone-DIT – this is your stop!

  • A short walk through the campus brings you to the Central Quad and main teaching buildings.

Heading home?
The Grangegorman Luas Stop also leads you directly back into the city. From there, you can rejoin Matthews services for a smooth journey home.
