I’ve just travelled from top of Manchester Road through town to the hospital and it was definitely very busy.

This afternoon it took me an hour and three quarters to drive from the East side Hull, to the West side, as a large section of the A63 main road is closed.
If anyone’s heading that way, I suggest they do a check on traffic hold ups. For anyone getting the ferry from Hull, it could make all the difference in them getting there on time, or missing it.

Second the comment from bfc. I was stuck in Hull for an hour today, due to road closure.
A bit bizzare that two Claret fans were passing through Hull today. I was coming back from Spurn

ICL, I was also at Spurn, but sadly had left before the Great Snipe was found. We were literally soaked to the skin, seeing the Red Eyed Vireo and the hopefully to be accepted Turkestan Lesser Whitethroat, before we headed home, taking 4 hours.
