The provision of a temporary bridge is not considered to be feasible on the A63, especially in a location likely to be used by pedestrians, cyclists and disabled users, due to land constraints. It also clashes with the location of the permanent Princes Quay Bridge.<\/p>

<\/p>

In the short term we will work closely with Hull County Council, to increase awareness of the alternative Humber Dock Street pedestrian crossing by providing additional signage and information.<\/p>

<\/p>

In the medium term Highways England are investigating whether construction of the Princes Quay Bridge could begin in advance of the main A63 Castle Street improvement scheme works currently programmed for Spring 2020. In order to deliver this element early, Highways England would need the support of key stakeholders including Hull County Council in securing the land to construct the bridge and co-ordinating traffic management.<\/p>
