With the loch side road to Strathcarron closed by a rock fall Highland Council hired the MV "Glenachulish" in January 2012 to temporarily re-establish the vehicle ferry crossing between Stromeferry and North Strome. This six-vehicle community owned turntable ferry normally runs between Glenelg and Kylerhea on Skye during the summer months.

The 10 minute ferry crossing across Loch Carron avoided a 140-mile diversion by road.
