More about Kingston-upon-HullKingston upon
Hull, more usually referred to simply as Hull (to avoid
confusion with Kingston upon Thames), is a city and
unitary authority in the East Riding of Yorkshire,
England. It is located on the north bank of the Humber
estuary, near the east coast, and on both sides of the
River Hull, which flows into the Humber.
Kingston upon Hull is near the east coast of the United
Kingdom, on the northern bank of the Humber estuary. The
city centre is close to the Humber, making the city
roughly semi-circular in shape. The city is surrounded
by the rural East Riding of Yorkshire, making it quite
isolated from many of the large cities of the United
Kingdom, when compared to the large conurbations of West
Yorkshire for example.
Much of Hull lies at or below sea level. The Hull Tidal
Surge Barrier is at the point where the River Hull joins
the Humber Estuary and is lowered at times when
unusually high tides are expected. It is used between 8
and 12 times per year and protects approximately 10,000
people from flooding. Due to its low level, Hull is
expected to be at increasing levels of risk from
flooding due to global warming.
The boundaries of the city are tightly drawn and exclude
many of the nearby villages which make up the larger
metropolitan area. Cottingham is the largest of these.
The main route into and out of Hull by road is the M62
motorway, which is one of the main east-west routes in
northern England. It provides a link to the cities of
Liverpool, Manchester and Leeds as well as the rest of
the country via the UK motorway network. The motorway
itself ends some distance from the city; the rest of the
way is along the dual carriageway A63. This is because
the motorway is intended to serve the wider East
Yorkshire area, rather than the city of Hull
specifically. The east-west route forms a small part of
the European road route E20.
The city's rail terminus is Hull Paragon railway
station. Services are provided to the rest of the UK,
including direct services to London, provided by Hull
Trains.
Transport within the city is provided by two main bus
operators: Stagecoach in Hull and East Yorkshire Motor
Services. A smaller operator, Alpha Bus and Coach,
provides one of the two Park and Ride services in the
city, whilst East Yorkshire Motor Services provide the
other. Generally, routes within the city are operated by
Stagecoach and those which leave the city are operated
by EYMS.
The new St Stephen's development will integrate Hull's
bus and railway stations into one structure. The
combination is expected to see 24,000 people passing
through each day. The development will also include
shopping and leisure facilities along with car parking
space. It is currently under construction and is
expected to be completed in 2007 at a cost of ?160
million.
P&O Ferries provide daily overnight ferry services from
King George Dock in Hull to Zeebrugge and Rotterdam.
Services to Rotterdam are worked by ferries Pride of
Rotterdam and Pride of Hull, the largest ferries
operating in the United Kingdom.
The nearest airport is in Lincolnshire, Humberside
Airport, which mostly provides charter flights and also
has four KLM scheduled flights to Amsterdam each day.
Doncaster/Sheffield airport is within one hour's drive
of the city and provides low cost flights to many
European destinations.
Hull has the most 20 miles per hour zones in the UK, in
an attempt to increase safety in its residential areas.
Hull is close to the Humber Bridge, which provides road
links to destinations south of the Humber. The bridge
was constructed between 1972 and 1981 and at the time
was the longest single-span suspension bridge in the
world. It is now fourth in the list. Prior to
construction of the bridge those wishing to cross the
Humber could either take a ferry or travel inland as far
as Goole.
Traditionally a solidly industrial city, many residents
are very proud of the city and its traditions. Equally
so, many give it credit for its down to earth, working
class attitude and friendly atmosphere. Having a certain
population of students from all over the country as well
as from overseas, the students often enjoy a friendly
atmosphere and warm hospitality from the locals. The
University of Hull boasts a reputation of being the
friendliest university in United Kingdom. Nationally,
Hull has always been seen as something of an oddity,
being a large city that is isolated in a very rural part
of Yorkshire. The rest of the East Riding has always
looked upon Hull as a very different entity, and
government decisions have taken this into account with
things such as post codes, telephone networks and other
regional groupings.
Hull's national reputation is also reflected by the
positive striving of the Council to improve the city's
welfare. However, the city has had poor performance in
terms of most socioeconomic indicators in comparison
with the rest of the UK. Hull City Council was
designated as the UK's worst performing authority in
both 2004 and 2005, which the Council are trying to
improve with its new 160 million pound St Stephen's
project.
