Tri Axle Coaches

We advise coach operators that there are certain routes that are unable to accommodate tri axle coaches, as we occasionally have issues with tri axle coaches. The issue is that they are unable to embark or disembark onto or from a small ferry due to there being loss of traction from the centre drive axle when traversing the slip/vessel ramp onto/off the vessel. This issue only affects some 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)
