Saggart has a similar layout to Tallaght Luas stop: there are two edge platforms, beyond which the track continues for around 80m where there is a double crossover. One platform is used for arrivals and one for departures.

The nearest bus stop is stop 3456, which is served by routes 69 and W62 (operated by Dublin Bus and Go-Ahead Ireland, respectively).
