Closure notice, New Holland Pier A closure notice attached to a notice board on New Holland Pier. Note that it states that the ferry should have closed on 07.06.81 when the Humber bridge was scheduled to open. However, as the notice goes on to say if this date was missed the ferry would continue to operate. As this picture was taken on 18.06.81 the extension clause was taken and did so for a further seven days with the bridge finally opening on 24.06 81. Many claimed that the bridge was a bit of a white elephant and with it going massively over budget it also cost dearly but today it is a vital part of Humberside's infrastructure.
