First Corran Ferry foot passenger fare to be introduced

The introduction of the first foot passenger fare on the Corran Ferry is to go ahead after a group of councillors delayed its introduction.

The five-minute, Highland Council-run crossing links the wider Lochaber area with communities in the Ardnamurchan peninsula.

The local authority's economy and infrastructure committee agreed to a £2 charge last month, but its implementation was paused to allow for a further debate on the fare.

Councillors attending a special meeting of the full council voted 34 to 27 in favour of the fee.
