signed for dublin and got lucky with a lift quickly. seems like a good spot at first because drivers can see you from across the crossroads but cars are driving too fast here from the dual carriage way to slow safely, and cars turning from the perpendicular roads are mostly locals. try after the roundabout on the motorway or at the traffic lights before the clinic to the south.

traffic to dublin and east in general, good visibility and space to pull over

Not a very good gas station, but I was nearby so it was my best shot. But if possible I don’t recommend ending up here lol. Most of the people not heading far, or are cautious to take someone.
I was lucky to get a ride with a family-ran equestrian business owner and they took me to Gorey and then I couchsurfed with them.

Was very lucky, walked here and a Swedish sailboat was just leaving for Dublin, so I got a passage across straight away.

N4 (M4 -> N6 and N4) to Galway, Sligo, Westport, Ballina, Longford, Athlone, Mullingar. Stand a few metres in front of the bus stop. Any 25, 66 or 67 from Pearse Street (opposite the police station).

Stand at traffic lights and approach stopped cars. Great for Belfast and other places north of Dublin.

This spot is legal to stand at, unlike the other spot further up, which is under motorway regulations. You need a sign, since there will be north and southbound traffic. An excellent spot.

Well, I guess it isn't legal spot anymore. After 30mins of hitchhiking airport police stopped and told us to leave immediately.. (August 2012)
