GB LBD marks Lochboisdale, the southern ferry gateway of South Uist in the Outer Hebrides. Its single linkspan and berth host Caledonian MacBrayne's RoRo service to Mallaig on the Scottish mainland, extended to Oban on some summer sailings. The traffic is overwhelmingly accompanied vehicles, passengers and rolling freight rather than containerised cargo, and no dedicated customs post operates here. A separate freight link runs to Castlebay on Barra, underpinning supplies across the island chain. Onward distribution relies on the A865 causeway road network connecting the Uists and Benbecula. For container or conventional sea freight, mainland hubs such as Greenock or Grangemouth are the practical choice.
