From Bouchet (or Blandonnet) take the bus number 9 marked "9 CERN" to its terminus at the CERN entrance ("be careful not to confuse it with the bus number 9-Zimeysa"). Ticket costs 2.60CHF (button B on the ticket machine). SeeTransports Publics Genevois web site for full details.

Travelling by Car
Coming from the Swiss side:

Coming from the French side

Follow "Gex" or "St. Genis". When in St. Genis head for the border. CERN is on your right hand side immediately after the border crossing.
