The project is based around the removal of 10 sunken vessels from the River Hull between Tickton and Beverley Beck to the east of Beverley. The removal of the vessels will significantly improve the
local environment, making the area more attractive for existing businesses and increasing its appeal to new investors. The scheme will also support tourism in Beverley by creating a pleasant local environment for residents and visitors.
