If orange is not your colour then I suggest staying away from Hull
centre for the duration of the ongoing 'upgrade'. Just about every
public space is lined with thousands of these barriers to protect us
from the predations of JCBs and dumper trucks. Above Trinity Square
looks like some sort of industrialised archaeological dig or perhaps a
post-nuclear clear up that's gone badly wrong.
A sign nearby informs the passers-by (that would be me as I saw no other souls around) that the nearby cafés were open as usual. Well no! Below is 'usual'; above is how a Council puts businesses out of business in the name of 'progress' which could be what they meant by business as usual.
