Find out about the progress of improving coastal access – including maps, process and timing – in the City of Hull and the East Riding of Yorkshire.
Map of the stretch
Natural England is working to improve coastal access along a 65km stretch of the coast between the Humber Bridge and Easington.
Officers from Hull City Council, East Riding of Yorkshire Council and the Humber Bridge Board are providing Natural England with expert local advice during the establishment of the route.
Stage of progress
Stage 5: Open
On 2 March 2022, the Secretary of State announced their decision to approve a stretch of the England Coast Path between the Humber Bridge and Easington.
The reports are still available to view.
Next steps
Work is now underway to prepare the new stretch of coast path for public use. The first step is to contact owners and occupiers of the affected land to discuss the design and location of any new infrastructure which is needed, such as signs and gates.
When preparations are complete, new access rights will come into force along the route and adjoining spreading room.
For further advice and information, see the links below.
