    No it doesn't. The red line at Hessle Haven is on the A63. There you see. That's what you get for splitting hairs.

    <laugh> The East Riding again, what have they done?

    You haven't been able to walk all the way along a footpath to Hessle Haven for about 100 years, there's a bloody great shipyard in the way.

    Aye, they're slow as **** but the keep getting voted in. Looking at your replies, it's gone way off anything I was commenting on really, so I'll leave you to it. Hey ho.

    Looking at the OS scale map, there are green dots showing the old, less scenic route that took into account the previous blockages.

    What claim? The bit you seem hung up on is not knowing where the waterfront is. You've latched onto needing a bridge to get over water as if it's some show stopper ffs. You didn't seem to know about the footpath behind the buildings either. Nah, **** it you're right. I've totally imagined going along there on numerous occasions.

    The TPS (remember that) didn't used to go that way, now it does.

    The claim that ERYCC have somehow blocked the route.

    That'll be the route you can ride through on the Hull bit but as your argument highlights, still needs a bit of deviation for the East Riding bit. Aye, I can see your point.

    The bit you seem obsessed with qasn't particularly the issue I had on mind, but it seemed.rude not to reply.

    In the final stages, apparently much of the frontage was supposed to have been brought down last night, but the machine kept packing up...

    I get info from all over the place, some from the HDM, some from Twitter, some from Facebook posts (many of the photos of works are posted on the
    Hull: The good old days Facebook page).

    The hotel build will start this year, as soon as the demolition has been completed, they're hoping to finish it by the end of next year, but it has an absolute latest completion date of the second quarter of 2017.

    The C4DI building is almost complete, though I don't know the official opening date...

    Humber Street is an ongoing development, I'm not sure there is a final completion date, but they're obviously trying to complete as many of the works as possible ahead of CoC 2017.
