What are the economic consequences of the Bridge?

Analysis of the Traffic using the Bridge shows that the Buiding of the Humber bridge has had an impact on the economy both North and South of the River Humber. Easier access to areas has enabled smaller businesses to expand and take on contracts that previously would have been beyond them: the time saved in travelling alone makes the overall cost of a delivery much cheaper for example.
