CALMAC has confirmed that a number of ferry services have had to be cancelled due to poor conditions on Tuesday morning.
Heavy fog has caused disruption to transport across Scotland with Traffic Scotland warning people to “take extra care and give yourself plenty travel time”.
The ferry operator issues an amber warning for services between Tarbert and Portavadie, adding that the 8am and 8.30am services had been cancelled.

Elsewhere, it also confirmed the 9.05am service from Rothesay has been cancelled due to the MV Argyle being unable to depart from Gourock.
Another post on Twitter/X said: "Largs. Cumbrae. Due to worsening fog conditions, the 08:45 sailing from Largs and the 09:00 sailing from Cumbrae are cancelled.
"If conditions allow the 09:15 from Largs and the 09:30 from Cumbrae will be attempted."
The ferry operator also said: "Ardrossan. Brodick. Due to reduced visibility caused by fog conditions, this service is liable to disruption or cancellation at short notice."
Services from Gourock have also had to be suspended although this will be reviewed around 9am.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
