The Humber Bridge is a single span suspension bridge crossing the River Humber at Kingston-Upon Hull. It was built between 1973 and 1981 and was granted grade I listed status in 2017[1]. It has a D2 arrangement and paths on either side that permit foot and cycles to cross since they are banned for the main carriageway. However since April 2021 these paths have been closed due to high numbers of deaths[2].
