On the north bank of the estuary is East Yorkshire, chiefly the regions of Hessle and Hull. The south bank is North Lincolnshire and North East Lincolnshire, with the towns of Barton and Grimsby located near the bridge. Follow the links to the official websites for these areas to learn more about them, what there is to see and do, and where to stay.

The footpaths are closed for a variety of reasons: during high-winds, for example, it would be dangerous to leave them open and accessible. We would also close the footpaths if required for maintenance works and large-scale events.

The east footpath is currently closed until further notice for resource and maintenance requirements.

Unfortunately, the footpaths are not wide enough to have a separate cycle path. We simply ask that all bridge users use the shared space provided considerately and watch out for one another.

There is a footpath leading through the Country Park and past the Wellbeing Hub, leading to a sloped path that provides access to the west footpath.

Yes – There are sloped paths leading onto the footpath from both Hessle (north) and Barton (south) sides of the Humber Bridge. These are wide enough to accommodate the use of wheelchairs.
