Citywest was still in development when the Luas line was being planned, so the streets were planned around the tram tracks. To the west of the stop, trams travel past the village green on their way to Saggart
The stop is served by Dublin Bus routes 65B and 77A. In addition, Citywest Campus operates its own bus route which acts as a feeder service to the Luas, and takes passengers to other areas of the campus.[3]
