Major investment programme - with focus on Hull's bridges and fountains

HULL City Council's cabinet are set to review proposals for a five-year investment programme which will preserve the city’s history and help keep it moving.

- 

A report, which represents a shift in the council's approach by bringing capital spending, maintenance and inspections together to ensure the longevity and conservation of the city’s assets, will be considered on Monday, June 23.

The report follows detailed inspections across Hull, with a focus on bridges, statues and monuments and fountains.

Recommendations include finding and prioritising council schemes in relation to the city's bridges, including strengthening schemes for Hessle Road Flyover, Sutton Road Bridge, Sutton Road Flyover and North Bridge as well as the replacement of bearings on Ennerdale Bridge, Stoneferry Bridge and Millennium Footbridge.
