The City Zone

Gone will be the days of ever-heightening flood defence walls around our city – it’s time to embrace our flood protection and enhance our living space at the same time. The City Zone will extend Hull beyond the existing water’s edge, taking us closer to the water.

 The Lagoon will be opened up to watersports groups to create a destination recreational area we can be proud of. Water buses will provide transport up the newly non-tidal River Hull towards Beverley while floating art galleries and research centres are just a few of the ideas to extend the current city centre southwards using the water.

 Our plans also include compatibility with a proposed cruise terminal which would generate an influx of tourists. This could be incorporated into sites on the pre-existing water’s edge or on the Lagoon’s outer harbour.
