Hull City Centre Road Closures Announced for Remembrance Sunday

Multiple roads in Hull’s city centre will be closed this Sunday as the city commemorates its war dead. Ferensway is among the streets that will be inaccessible from 06:00 until 13:00 GMT. A parade is scheduled to depart from Queen Victoria Square at 10:25, proceeding to the war memorial. A service will begin at 10:55, with a two-minute silence to be observed at 11:00, according to the council. Lord Mayor and Admiral of the Humber, Mark Collinson, stated: “This is always the best attended of the civic events – and for me, it is the most important. Much of what today we take for granted was bought at a bitter cost by the sacrifices of previous generations. We do not forget.” Full information regarding the closures can be accessed here.
