The Humber bridge is one of the largest suspension bridges of the world. In 1981, when the bridge was finished, and 17 years thereafter it was the longest single span suspension bridge of the world. It is situated in Yorkshire, England and crosses the river Humber near its mouth. As the river Humber slowly develops into a bay of the North Sea, its breadth posed a real challenge in the days of the construction of the bridge.
The bridge has two lanes in each direction and cars using it have to pay a toll.
