## Description
The existing pier and passenger facilities at Craignure are life expired and new infrastructure will support the deployment of new vessels on the route and wider ferry network as follows:
- Replace the existing terminal infrastructure, parts of which are in poor condition, deteriorating or have limited structural capacity.
- Increase berth capacity at the new ferry terminal to allow the full range of design vessels to be safely accommodated.
- Ensure vessels can reliably berth year-round at the new ferry terminal, including in challenging weather conditions and overnight, to reduce weather-related cancellations and improve the winter timetable.
- Increase resilience of the new ferry terminal operations.
- Allow safe and efficient embarkation and disembarkation for both vehicles and foot passengers, including those with impaired mobility and wheelchair users.
- Increase capacity of the new vehicle marshalling yard in line with industry standards, addressing congestion on the A849.
- Provide a new terminal building with modern facilities, meeting staff and passenger demand.
- Provide access for RNLI lifeboat, which is used for medical evacuations from Mull to the mainland; and
- Maintain the operational ferry service during construction works, avoiding and minimising disruption to the ferry service as far as practicable.
