8 Timeline Date Event Principal Direct Impact April hour ferry services introduced. Time, reliability 17 October 1995 Bridge opens and ferry services cease. Tolls were slightly cheaper than ferry fares for all Time, image, comfort, reliability, and cost vehicle categories Toll regime change funded by Scottish Cost Executive, with reductions in tolls for local people via books of tickets to 1.34 per single journey. 21 December 2004 Tolls removed. Cost, time

16 Trends in the Economy
17 Business Views of Impacts have Changed Local impacts relatively more important
18 Business Impacts Winners Entrepreneurs Investors Skye brand Losers Protected markets e.g. shops Low value markets
19 Tourism Impact of toll removal limited Positive impacts through image and marketing Negative impact from loss of island identify Mallaig and Glenelg ferries largely tourist travel Accommodation quality critical Bed spaces? Business ownership issues?
20 Household Views Now closer to expectations for less remote areas
21 Household Views of Toll Removal 35% 30% ting Impact % All Responses Indicat 25% 20% 15% 10% 5% 0% Incr. Shopping in Kyle / Lochalsh Incr. Social Visits in Kyle / Lochalsh Incr. Shopping / Social in Inverness Incr. Employment Opps / New Jobs On/Off Island Moved / Considering Moving to Skye Reduced Frustration / Cost / Hassle Incr. Shopping on Skye Incr. Social Visits to Skye Others Lifestyle Changes
22 General Perceptions 30% of house buyers from outside Scotland Fastest increase in house sales Some local net migration from mainland to island Attitudes and accessibility Very strong correlation
23 Household Savings Some evidence of savings by households In shops, tolls Household savings on toll circa 1m Net saving less than 200k Households in the south of Skye spending more on transport
24 Islands and Links to Mainland Economies Remoteness is the most important factor
25 User Benefits Three fifths of the benefit comes from toll removal
26 Appraisal Issues Transport appraisal did not help to identify important t impacts Demand could not be forecast without knowing the economic impacts Once we know the economic impacts then transport appraisal can be used to measure them However values of time are much lower than national averages so what are we comparing Setting transport investment in context
27 Define/redefine the accessibility problem Appraisal Framework Who needs to be involved in delivering the change What knowledge of accessibility impacts is required by each stakeholder Define practical solutions Assess the impacts of the change on each people group Identify delivery approach to maximise i the accessibility benefits
28 Questions What sort of rural and remote areas do people want? What is the role of government in supporting this? How can we make the right transport decisions given the high costs and long term benefits?
