Scottish Ferry Routes
This dataset represents passenger and vehicle ferry services in Scotland. These are the routes for the start and end terminals in the Scottish Ferry Ports dataset. It was initially created for use within the development of the Scottish Government's Urban Rural Classification. Both subsidised and private routes are included, as well as the seasonality of the route and whether it can take vehicle or foot passengers only. Ferry routes and attributes are based upon route information obtained from operator websites (e.g. Caledonian MacBrayne, NorthLink Ferries, etc.).

- Statement
- The original Ferry Routes dataset was created by the Scottish Government by surveying online timetables and maps from the individual service providers (e.g. Caledonian MacBrayne, Pentland Ferries etc.). A 2016 revision to the data made improvements by integrating information from the Traveline public transport dataset, which details ferry timetables and terminals aggregated from all ferry operators. Ferry Routes were digitised against Ordnance Survey background mapping and are indicative only and may not represent the exact path travelled.
