The Waverley brings much need visitors to Helensburgh. Argyll &Bute need to put some finding forward.

The repairs to the pier must be a priority as Helensburgh needs the Waverley to be visiting.

The pier should be repaired as a priority so that Waverley can come back. This iconic vessel is much loved locally as well as far & wide.

Tragic if this is not repaired. A brilliant asset to the town. Craigendoran pier used to be a hive of steamer activity. Don’t let Helensburgh pier go the same way!

Helensburgh Pier is such an important asset to our town. The pier must be made safe and then returned to her former glory as the central attraction of our riverside town. Time is of the essence as we must be ready to receive the Waverley Paddle Steamer next season if we are not to risk losing her to other locations. Argyll and Bute Council must push the boat out to make the pier a key priority.

This would benefit all and give a much needed boost to tourism and young and elderly alike.

The Waverly is outstanding - an icon of the Clyde, and we need to enhance it as a visitor attraction
