When the network runs

The earliest departure listed for Clonmel today is early morning and the latest is late evening. Outside that window there is no scheduled service, so late arrivals need a taxi.

1

Check the day type

Saturday and Sunday timetables are thinner than weekdays, and some routes do not run at all.

2

Work backwards

Pick the arrival you need first, then find the departure that gets you there with a margin.

3

Confirm the last bus

The final departure of the day is the one most often missed — check it before you commit to the trip.

Mistakes worth avoiding

Assuming one ticket covers everything

Leap works on TFI services, not on private coaches. Check the operator on the route card before you rely on it.

Trusting the terminus time

The headline departure time is from the first stop. Your stop may be twenty minutes later — open the route page for times from where you actually board.

Areas served

Between them the routes on this page call at 112 stops around Clonmel, including Airport Zone 16, Annerville, Ard Gaoithe Bus Pk, Ard Na Sidhe, Ardee, Ardee Ch, Ash Court, Athboy. Type any of these into the search box to see which services reach them.

Where these numbers come from

Everything on this page is generated from the official GTFS timetable data published for Irish public transport, refreshed weekly. The journey counts reflect services scheduled to run today — not a yearly average — which is why they move from day to day. Operators set the times and can change them, so confirm before travelling.

Getting to the airport

Airport journeys from Clonmel are on this page — filter the list above by coach services to compare them. Book ahead where you can: the airport runs fill first and the walk-up fare is rarely the cheapest.

Allow more time than the timetable suggests. A scheduled departure is not a guaranteed arrival, and airport traffic is the least predictable part of any route.

Accessible travel

Most city buses serving Clonmel are low-floor with a ramp and a wheelchair space. Coaches and rural minibuses vary far more, so contact the operator ahead for those. Rail assistance should be booked in advance where possible.

Who runs the buses

4 operators serve Clonmel, and they do not share ticketing. Knowing which company runs your route matters because it decides whether a Leap Card works.

Questions people ask

What happens if I miss my connection?
On separate tickets you have no protection — you buy again. That is the main argument for leaving a margin when you plan a change.
Is there a night service?
Overnight services are rare outside Dublin. Check the last departure carefully if you are out late.
Where is the main bus station?
The city’s stands and coach station are the hub for most services listed here, and the rail station is usually a short walk away.
Do I need to book a seat?
On city buses no — turn up and pay or tap. On intercity coaches booking is advisable, especially at weekends and on airport runs, because those services do sell out.
Can I use a Leap Card on every service?
No. TFI services accept it; private coach operators use their own ticketing. The operator is shown on each route card above.
What time does the last bus run?
It varies by route. The latest scheduled departure across all the services listed here is shown in the timetable section — but your particular route may finish much earlier.
