As you will know, the Lochaline – Fishnish service will be closed to cars from October 21st until December 1st.
A foot passenger service will operate, primarily for school children and regular passengers. Additional services will also operate between Oban and Craignure to make up for the loss of service. The full timetable details will be confirmed and published soon, but in the meantime there is one issue to highlight –
If you regularly use the Lochaline-Fishnish service as a commute to or from work, and not being able to take your car across will cause you a significant problem, can you please email joe@islandbakery.co.uk . We have been trying to secure a few hire cars to be made available for the small number of people we believe will be affected , but so far there is no agreement to fund them.
If a having a hire car available to you on whichever side you work would be helpful, please get in touch so that we can make the case for you.
