Sir,
So, Brodick’s new ferry terminal is finally up and running, six months late and 66 per cent over the original budget; when first revealed in 2014 we were told the cost would be £18 million, then £22.2 million in 2016 and now £30 million.
At the same time, there will be a further delay in the £48 million plus MV Glen Sannox, built for the Arran route, entering service as it has had to go back to dry dock for modifications because it was launched ‘not fit for purpose’.
