Humber Bridge reopens after toll upgrade

Overnight tag lane closures were in place Thursday evening until Friday morning

The Humber Bridge has reopened after overnight tag lane closures as the project enters phase two of its toll system upgrade.

The New Tolling System (NTS) will see booths removed for the first time in the bridge's 44-year history, with payments being made through a website or app.

Work on the scheme began in March and the first phase of civil engineering works have now been completed.

The next phase involved installing a new gantry, and roads reopened at 05:00 BST on Friday.

The scheme is fully expected to launch in late Autumn.
