Current status: Answered by Graeme Dey on 19 January 2022
To ask the Scottish Government, further to the answer to question S6W-01657 by Graeme Dey on 16 August 2021, what Transport Scotland’s latest assessment is of progress in planning multi-modal transport continuity, in preparation for the temporary transfer of CalMac Ferries services from Ardrossan to Troon.
As part of service continuity planning CalMac Ferries Ltd (CFL) are undertaking public consultation sessions with communities in early 2022 to gather feedback on Troon timetables. This also includes plans for transport integration and connectivity with other modes whereby CalMac continues to engage with ScotRail and bus operators.
In addition to support the service, two shuttle-bus services will also be available from Ardrossan to Troon and between Troon railway station and port.
