Renfrew-Yoker Ferry

The Renfrew-Yoker ferry is wholly owned and operated by SPT. It is one of Scotland's oldest passenger ferry services and one of the most popular, carrying nearly 150,000 passengers across the Clyde each year.

  • Renfrew-Yoker Ferry
  • The Renfrew Rose and the Yoker Swan travel the 200m between the slipways at Renfrew on the south bank and Yoker on the north. Crew members can see passengers waiting on the other side so they can cross on demand.

    The Renfrew ferry point is a traditional bus terminus while the Yoker point is a short walk from Glasgow's Dumbarton Road with its regular bus services. The service operates every day except 25 and 26 December and 1 and 2 January.

    Fares:

    Adult single £1.10
    Child single £0.55

    Please ensure that you have the exact fare before boarding the vessel as the ticket-issuing machine does not give change.
