The Humber Bridge is an awe-inspiring suspension bridge across the Humber, an estuary formed by the rivers Trent and Ouse. When it was completed in 1981, it was the longest bridge of its kind in the world and was not surpassed until 1998. The bridge stretches for 1.4 miles (2.3 km) and is Grade I-listed. Construction work on the bridge began in 1972 and it was officially opened by Queen Elizabeth II on July 17, 1981.
