Who should use this guidance paper?

This guidance paper has been developed specifically for the undertaking of CNAs relating to the Transport Scotland contracted ferries networks – i.e., the Clyde and Hebridean Ferry Services (CHFS) and the Northern Isles Ferry Services (NIFS).

However, the approach set out would support Scottish Transport Appraisal Guidance (STAG) studies and business cases undertaken by local authorities in relation to their own services.
