Western Ferries (Clyde) Ltd, which operates a commercial vehicle and passenger ferry service between Gourock and Dunoon, is investing £4m in upgrading its terminal infrastructure at Hunter’s Quay, Dunoon.
The works include the installing a 30m long linkspan to replace the existing structure as well as enhancements to the berthing facilities and shore side infrastructure. Red7Marine won the contract to deliver the shore side infrastructure improvement works and berthing facilities enhancements. Western Ferries chose to work with it because of its proven track record.
