Where road haulage meets the sea, Scrabster links Caithness to Orkney: a RoRo ferry crosses the Pentland Firth to Stromness in about 90 minutes, and the depot is the receipt-and-despatch point for cargo moving to and from the islands. Britain's most northerly mainland port serves energy, fishing, ferry, property and cargo sectors at once. Its Queen Elizabeth berth has a hydraulic RoRo linkspan rated to 150 tonnes, while the Jubilee and St Ola piers carry heavy-lift pads, mobile cranes and a weighbridge. Cargo spans general, bulk, refrigerated, containers, fuels and roll-on/roll-off, with recent specialised loads including transformers, rock armour, railway lines and fabricated steel modules. Pallet and groupage consignments for Caithness are consolidated here for onward distribution. For deep-sea container liner traffic, however, forwarders turn to Aberdeen or Invergordon.
