The easiest way to travel directly to the ground is to take the DART. The line actually runs under the West stand of the stadium and stops at Lansdowne Road Station itself.
From Dublin city centre visitors to Aviva Stadium can take the DART southbound from Pearse Station on Westland Row, Tara St Station or Connolly Station. Connolly Station provides a link with the LUAS.

The main bus routes that serve Ballsbridge from the city centre are the 7 and 8, 45 and 84.
