Shetland Islands Council will soon begin essential maintenance on the linkspan at Laxo ferry terminal.
Work is scheduled to start on Saturday 19th February and will last for a period of ten days, although this is weather dependent. During this time the service will operate to and from the Vidlin ferry terminal, to its regular timetable.
Works will commence after the last scheduled sailing on Friday 18th February 2022, until the first scheduled sailing Tuesday 1st March 2022, when ferry services will resume to the Laxo Terminal.
Passengers should be aware that there are no designated parking facilities at the Vidlin ferry terminal.
This work to the supporting structures of the linkspan is in preparation for the planned linkspan refurbishment that is also expected to take place at Laxo in April this year.
Shetland Islands Council would like to apologise for any inconvenience to passengers.
