Latest news release relating to the Corran Ferry service during the annual refit of the MV Corran

Corran Ferry Stakeholders update

Please find below the weekly Corran Ferry annual refit update and link to a news release issued today relating to the CRD funding plan for a new Corran Ferry vessel. 

Corran Ferry – Stakeholders Update – W/C 25 November 2024

Ferry Funding Announced Today

Please find the link here to the announcement made today by The Highland Council confirming good news from the Cabinet Secretary for Finance and Local Government Shona Robison, that the Inverness and Highland City Region Deal funding plan for the new Corran Ferry vessel is now confirmed, and echo the thanks in the media release to all the Corran Ferry stakeholders and community representatives for their collaborative approach and supporting this outcome for a sustainable and reliable Corran Ferry service.

MV Corran Autumn Refit Progress

Good weather helped greatly for the first two weeks, and all started well.  Last week, week three, was affected by a yard shut down for a family funeral, and poor winter weather during storm Bert.  However, good weather has returned, and works are progressing well.  Main items are summarised below:

Week 1 – Final preparation.  Journey to Isle of Bute.  Vessel taken out of the water.  Refit commenced.

Week 2 – Machinery units removed and delivered to specialists for overhaul.  Port Main Engine overhaul commenced.  Two large car-deck steel patches commenced and well advanced.

Week 3 – Two large car-deck steel patches completed (await NDT test).  Positive hull survey results.  Engine work progressing well.  Replacement of ramp pins and bushes completed.

Week 4, this week – Engine overhaul and camshaft work well progressed; expect to run up Main Engines this week.  Various machinery unit overhauls progressing well.  Electrical works ongoing.  Various smaller hot work repairs ongoing.

Expectations

Any emergent repairs are progressing well, and thankfully any hull patching has been avoided since last week’s hull-plating survey results were all good.  At this point it is still possible to be home by Christmas, but advisory expectations still caution a January return due to the number of discrete works and specialist third parties involved.  All parties and resources are committed to returning the MV Corran back to service as soon as possible, and stakeholders will continue to receive regular updates on her progress.

Resurfacing Works A861 24th – 27th June

‘Essential resurfacing works are to be carried out on the A861 from the U1377 and continuing southeast for 300meters, on Monday 24th to Thursday 27th June between 9am and 5pm. Traffic management with Stop Go boards will be in force – some delays are to be expected’

Ongoing works- Ariundle National Nature Reserve

Notice to the community that NatureScot will be working in our section of Ariundle NNR over the summer.
NatureScot staff have started to clear some mature beech and sitka as well as regenerating smaller trees from both species. These species are not native and if left will pose a threat to the woodland structure. This work will help the native species thrive and to ensure that the sites unique woodland character is maintained in the long term. We also plan to ring bark some of the larger trees to provide standing deadwood habitat for invertebrates, this will only effect a limited number of trees.

Its likely that we will be returning periodically to complete more of this work over the summer. We will work around access users and there won’t be any path closures.

If any community member has any questions of queries they can contact graeme.taylor@nature.scot

Corran Ferry – Maid of Glencoul refit update 20th May 2024

The Corran Ferry Service – The MV Corran is operating as normal while her support vessel, the Maid of Glencoul is undergoing her annual refit overhaul. 

The overhaul and steering system repair are progressing well and following inspection, repairs to the hull will also be carried out whilst in dry dock. Completion of the additional repair works is expected mid-July. 

Regular updates will continue to be issued to the Corran Ferry Stakeholder Group as the repair work continues.

Economy and Infrastructure Committee Chair, Cllr Ken Gowans said: “The Maid of Glencoul annual refit overhaul and steering system repair is progressing well, and steel replacement work was agreed to be carried out to the hull of the vessel whilst out of the water. While this may mean an extended period to allow this level of repair work to be carried out, it is worth it to ensure that she returns to Corran in the very best possible condition before returning to service. 

“We have always been committed to bringing the Maid of Glencoul back to service as a support vessel for the MV Corran and will continue to keep stakeholders updated on the repairs progress.”

The MV Corran is operating as normal and the timetable details and other information is available here.

Real time service updates can also be found via the @CorranFerry and Facebook

Corran Ferry Update – 21 November

Corran Ferry Replacement – Infrastructure

The Corran Narrows ground investigation works continues and is scheduled to end around 15 Dec 2023.  

Further public consultation on the new infrastructure will be carried out early 2024.

Maid of Glencoul

The MoG transferred to a temporary mooring on Sunday 19 November (at Trislaig, owned by the Underwater Test Centre (UTC) with the help of the UTC) to make way for the ground investigation works below the MoG’s normal mooring at Ardgour. This is not part of her repair works.

As previously communicated, there is a 10 week lead in time on repair parts which are expected to be delivered in December. Due to the parts delivery timeline and ongoing system solutions by Kongsberg, completion of the work is forecast for early 2024 although every effort is being made to bring this forward as much as possible.

It remains a priority to have the Maid of Glencoul available for service as soon as possible and progress updates will continue.

A861 Rubha Dearg – Camusnagaul Road Surfacing Works – Lochaber

A861 resurfacing works is progressing well with approximately 40-50% of the works complete, full completion should be early December.

The Highland Council apologise for any inconvenience caused by the delivery of these essential works.  Operatives and officers continue to work to minimise disruption wherever possible.


Corran Ferry Update – 13 November

Corran Ferry Replacement – Infrastructure

Work is well underway at the Corran Narrows to establish ground conditions which will help inform the detailed design for new slipways and overnight berthing. The proposed infrastructure will be flexible enough to accommodate the existing MV Corran and provide interchangeability with Roll on Roll Off vessels.

The ground investigation works will have no bearing on the MV Corran ferry service and are scheduled to end around the 15 Dec 2023.  Further public consultation on the new infrastructure will be carried out early 2024.

Small Vessels Replacement Programme (SVRP)

The Highland Council continues to benefit from being part of the Small Vessels Replacement Programme (SVRP) in terms of expertise and economies of scale (i.e., lower costs) in modern ferry design. The General Arrangement drawings and key deliverables for the new Corran ferry design (32 car – fully electric) are in place. In addition, a comprehensive tender specification has been provided that can be used as the key document during the procurement and ship building stage. Naval Architects – naValue are scheduled to carry out a final assessment (mid-December) on board the MV Corran to establish the power performance profile for the service which will inform battery type and weight allowance of the new electric vessels.

Maid of Glencoul

No update from last week – As part of the ground investigation works and borehole works, the Maid of Glencoul will require to move from her current mooring to Corpach for berthing for a temporary period to allow for the programme of works to continue. This is not part of her repair works.

As previously communicated, there is a 10 week lead in time on repair parts which are expected to be delivered in December. Due to the parts delivery timeline and ongoing system solutions by Kongsberg, completion of the work is forecast for early 2024 although every effort is being made to bring this forward as much as possible.

It remains a priority to have the Maid of Glencoul available for service as soon as possible and progress updates will continue.

A861 Rubha Dearg – Camusnagaul Road Surfacing Works – Lochaber

A861 resurfacing works have started to surface unbound passing places and adjacent overlays since Friday 3 November 2023.  The scheme is progressing well. These works will be undertaken under a continuation of the temporary access restrictions advertised. The Highland Council apologise for any inconvenience caused by the delivery of these essential works.  Operatives and officers continue to work to minimise disruption wherever possible.


MV Corran Ferry service resumes – Sunday 29 October

MV Corran has resumed service this afternoon (approx.15:00hrs). The news release below will be issued shortly and the website and social media pages updated.

MV Corran Ferry service resumes – Sunday 29 October

Following the completion of repairs and successful sea trials, the MV Corran ferry has returned to service this afternoon (Sunday 29 October) around 15:00 hrs.

The MV Corran will operate her usual timetable, running seven days a week. For updates and timetable details, please visit the website.

The vessel has been out of service since developing a significant fault with the aft propulsion unit last winter.  Specialist engineers have now completed the necessary component repairs and commissioning. The Highland Council is looking forward to welcoming vehicles and passengers back on board.

The two temporary foot passenger services will stop operating from today as will the shuttle bus service to and from Camusnagaul.

Economy and Infrastructure Committee Chair, Cllr Ken Gowans said: “Due to unprecedented repair challenges, the Corran Ferry main vessel the MV Corran has regrettably been out of service for twelve months and her back-up vessel, the Maid of Glencoul, has also had significant breakdowns during that time since April 2023, and especially latterly since August 2023. Resulting in a foot passenger only service or a lengthy alternative route as the mode of transport to and from the Ardnamurchan Peninsula. 

“Contributory factors to the duration of the MV Corran’s outage from service include lead in time delays in manufacturing the specialist wheel-gear unit and other replacement components from Europe, boatyard availability pressures and augmented annual maintenance repairs commensurate with the vessel age and to some degree the duration she has been out of service.

“In a determined effort to reduce the risk of in-service failures on her return an extensive overhaul of the MV Corran has been undertaken. This includes renewal of the steel plating on both the aft and forward ramps plus a large proportion of the car deck.  New underwater fender skids have also been fitted.

“The Highland Council regrets the reduction to service, the additional journey time and the impact the delay in the MV Corran’s return has caused to the public and businesses. We understand the dismay and deeply regret the circumstances of the outage. 

“We also value the importance of ensuring a reliable service for the sustainability of the Ardnamurchan Peninsula and beyond and continue to work to find solutions and financial funding to provide medium to long term service plans.”

Cllr Gowans added: “The Corran Ferry crew has been exceptional during really challenging times and worked tirelessly to bring the MV Corran back home for service, I would like to thank them for their long standing commitment and dedication.”

Any remaining cars parked at the slipway marshalling areas must be removed as soon as possible to allow vehicle access to the MV Corran.

Corran Ferry – Update from Highland Council 26th Oct 2023

The Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) inspected the MV Corran on Wednesday 25 October and successfully authorised the ‘Passenger Carrying Certificate’ required to resume service.

Following the MCA inspection survey, the MV Corran is now on her return journey home. With an early start and favourable weather conditions she is hoped to be back in Corran late Thursday evening (26 October), fit the ramps at Corpach on Friday morning (27 October), then final preparations for service to resume as soon as possible after that, either on Friday (27 October) or Saturday (28 October).

Subject to the programme above, it is currently planned that MV Corran will resume full service on either Friday 27 October or Saturday 28 October. This will be confirmed and communicated to the public when the final preparations are well under way.

Both the temporary foot passenger services from Corran and Fort William will continue until the MV Corran returns to service.

Corran Ferry – Update from Highland Council 24th Oct 2023

Here is the link to the public news release – https://www.highland.gov.uk/news/article/15643/corran_ferry_repairs_update_%E2%80%93_tuesday_24_october

Corran Ferry Update

The Marine and Coastguard Agency (MCA) inspected the MV Corran yesterday afternoon (Monday 23 Oct) and unfortunately could not issue the ‘Passenger Carrying Certificate’ required to resume service. This was due to a ‘bilge suction’ issue and this issue has since been rectified, a reinspection by MCA surveyors will take place on Wednesday 25 or Thursday 26 October, which is the earliest date the surveyor can be on site, storm Babet having also affected survey work.

Following the MCA inspection there are a few additional stages required before MV Corran can resume service.

They are as follows:

  • Following the MCA inspection and certification, allow 2 – 3 days to sail back to Corran, Lochaber.
  • 1 day to fit ramps at Corpach.

At time of writing (Tues 24 Oct) and subject to the successful issue of the MCA ‘Passenger Certificate’ the MV Corran is now expected to resume service as soon as possible during week commencing Monday 30 October.

Maid of Glencoul

No change in position since last week.

Passenger Service

The passenger ferry services across the narrows and from Fort William to Ardgour continue to be well used, however experienced some disruption to service due to adverse weather caused by Storm Babet.

Both services will continue until the MV Corran returns to service.

  • 1 day to fit ramps. 

With the schedule programmed as above, the timeline for the return to service for the MV Corran is week commencing 23 October.  A weekly update will continue to be issued, and more frequent announcements as appropriate as final preparations continue.

Maid of Glencoul

Engineers are continuing to investigate a steering system issue to enable the Maid of Glencoul to return to service.  That work is underway, however a solution to the technical issue that caused the parts failure remains to be resolved and at time of writing we do not have a date for her return.

In terms of the parts for the Maid of Glencoul repair, we have received word from Kongsberg that they now hope to have parts to us within ten weeks.  In terms of the ongoing solution, they have committed to giving us an indicative timeline asap and we continue online meetings with them to that end.

As soon as we have an indicative date, we will communicate this information to the public. It remains a priority to have both the MV Corran which is due for return week commencing 23 October and the Maid of Glencoul available for service as soon as possible – again weekly updates are being sought.

A861 alternative route

The design of the proposed 40mph speed limit is being taken forward asap.
