The MV Alfred will continue to operate on the Clyde and Hebrides Ferry Services network for an additional six months. Minister for Transport Fiona Hyslop said: “An agreement has been reached with Pentland Ferries to extend the charter for the MV Alfred for a further six months. This will help maintain resilience on the Clyde and Hebrides ferry network during the winter months and into the summer. “The MV Alfred can operate on a number of routes on the network and allows other vessels to be moved to minimise any disruption if necessary. “Everyone at CalMac remains committed to providing our communities with the best possible service.”
