What do I need to be aware of if I’m travelling with a tri-axle coach?
We occasionally have issues with tri axle coaches travelling on ferries. Sometimes, they are unable to embark or disembark onto or from a small ferry due to there being loss of traction from their centre drive axle. This can happen when they are traversing the slip/vessel ramp onto/off the vessel.
This issue only affects some of our small ferries on the following routes:
-
Ardmhor - Eriskay
-
Tobermory - Kilchoan
-
Tayinloan - Gigha
-
Tarbert - Portavadie
-
Largs - Cumbrae (on only the smaller of the two ferries that operate the route)
