WORK is underway to procure two new ferries for the Clyde and Hebrides network, the Scottish Government has announced.
The new ferries will be secured with additional funding given to Caledonian Maritime Assets Limited (CMAL) by the Scottish Government in an effort to replace vessels in the CalMac fleet.
The two ships will be built to the same specification as existing vessels under construction for Islay and are intended to be used in the Skye triangle routes to Lochmaddy and Tarbert.
