Renfrew-Yoker Ferry

The Renfrew-Yoker ferry is wholly owned and operated by SPT. Please note that the ferry will cease operation at the end of March 2010.

  • 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.

    Fares:

    Adult single £1.20
    Child single £0.60

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

    Please also note that the ferry service between Renfrew and Yoker will be withdrawn on 31 March 2010.
