Vivienne Nicoll obviously doesn't possess an 'O' or even a basic standard grade in geography!! A mis-representation of a quote from SPT "Arrochar on the edge of Loch Lomond(and the Tossachs National Park)" - but Arrochar is - AND ALWAYS WAS - on Loch Long!! Furthermore, Arrochar is ALSO linked to Glasgow by rail, albeit with a much redused frequency compares to Greenock!! AND isn't the intended ferry terminal at GOUROCK??

It seems that you are the one with pretty suspect local geography. It is a shame that you require to personally attack someones intelligence when you should perhaps be looking in the mirror. Be embarrassed!!

What does it matter...> It's just more SPT "feasibility work", their usual way of frittering away cash.
When Cllr Watson says "I am certain", I wonder what's happened to the subway extension, the Edinburgh maglev study, the Fastlink, all of which he was certain would have happened by now.
How may people want to go from Inverclyde to Arrochar/Lochgoilhea
d, exactly... not many, I suspect.

Will we be priced off the ferries as in the case of the traditional 'Doon the Watter' sailings and more recently the water taxi between Broomielaw and Braehead.
No point in suggesting that sailings from Arrochar or Lochgoilhead are extended to encompass Braehead and Glasgow no gaurantee that the bridges would stay up long enough to let boats pass
