Overnight closures for Humber Bridge toll upgrade
The New Tolling System (NTS) will see booths removed for the first time in the bridge's 44-year history, with payments being made through a website or app.
Work on the scheme began in March and the first phase of civil engineering works have now been completed.
The next phase involved installing a new gantry, meaning overnight tag lane closures will be in place from 20:00 BST on Thursday until 05:00 BST on Friday.
During the works, motorists would still be able to cross the bridge in either direction, with or without a HumberTag, but only using the toll booth lanes, a Humber Bridge spokesperson said.
They advised drivers to allow for extra time for their journey during these hours.
The scheme is expected to launch in late Autumn.
