Travel

From Dublin, Kilkenny, Carlow (using the toll bridge):

Take the M9 / N9 towards Waterford. At the first roundabout on approach to Waterford, take the first exit (signposted Waterford / Cork / Rosslare). At the next roundabout, take the third exit (signposted N25 / Cork / Waterford South). Proceed through the toll bridge (toll is €1.90 per car). Take the exit directly after the toll bridge (signposted Waterford South/R710). At the top of the off-ramp, go left at the small roundabout, then straight through two larger roundabouts (signposted R710/City Centre/Tramore). At the next roundabout (landmark B&Q on your left), take the first exit (signposted City Centre). Proceed down the Cork Road for approx 2km and the main entrance to WIT’s main campus is on the left.

Go right at the roundabout, cross the bridge and take a left turn along the quays. At the end of the quays (at the Tower Hotel) follow the road around to the right onto The Mall.
