Work has started on the dismantling of the old pier and linkspan in Brodick which will eventually be demolished.
The former gangway and gantry have been taken down and work to remove all the services is currently being carried out by George Leslie Ltd, which won the contract for the work after a tender exercise over the summer. The work should be complete by the end of the month.
The pier is now surplus to requirements after the completion of the new £30 million terminal and pier after several months of delay in March.
