Funding for the exercise was provided by ScotRail, with additional in-kind contributions from members of the WHCRP project team. The WHCRP is a newly established community organization covering the West Highland railway corridor from Mallaig to Crianlarich, as well as its hinterland. With an overall aim of working in partnership with the railway industry to make train travel a more attractive option for locals and visitors alike, it commissioned the survey to identify the issues that constrain use of regional rail services. 2 Methodology As discussed and agreed with the WHCRP a two-stage methodology was adopted and used: a paper and web-based survey of local user needs and an ‘offline’ face-to-face survey of tourists.

  • Interchange Audit -- Mallaig Sustainable
    interchange audit MALLAIG RAILWAY STATION FERRY PORT Interchange Audit Susan Warren Jolin Warren 12 May 2014 Linking cycling with public transport Introduction Purpose of the Interchange Audit Transform Scotland has carried out a series of ‘Interchange Audits’ to assess how easy it is to combine cycling with other forms of sustainable transport. Railway stations, bus stations, and ferry terminals have been audited with consideration given both to cyclists who might want to park their bike and to those who plan to take their bike with them (for instance on the train or ferry). Each audit has involved an on-the-ground survey using the Interchange Toolkit which was developed for this project. The survey considers aspects that could make a cyclist’s journey easier or more difficult, starting from the station or terminal approach, through entering, to locating parking or the appropriate boarding point. Features such as signage, suitable routes, and access to facilities have been included. However, the project did not assess cycle carriage (for example, the number of cycle spaces on a train or ferry). overview of station and terminal The railway station and ferry terminal in Mallaig are located next to each other and so the proximity of these facilities makes it possible to switch between rail and ferry with ease. Local authority area Location Highland Council In the centre of the village which has a population of 790 e ra B 's ie v a D E a st A B n ay n i e ' s B r a e Mallaig Railway Station The railway station in Mallaig is the terminus station for the West Highland Line with services from Fort William.
