While no private coach services stop directly at the Coonagh Campus, students travelling from outside Limerick can use private operators that serve Limerick City Centre. From the city, local public buses or walking options connect to Coonagh.
Examples of Private Operators serving Limerick City:
- Dublin Coach (Green Bus) – Services between Dublin, Limerick, Tralee, and Ennis.
- Expressway (Bus Éireann) – Intercity routes to Limerick from Cork, Galway, Dublin, Tralee, and Waterford.
- Local Link Clare/Limerick – Rural services linking smaller towns and villages to Limerick City.
A more direct option for students is the JJ Kavanagh 735 service (Limerick – Nenagh – Dublin), which offers a very convenient option for students travelling to TUS Coonagh Campus.
