East Yorkshire is a county in Yorkshire in the north of England. It's mostly rural, but there's an industrial strip along the banks of the Humber Estuary. The largest built-up area is the city of Kingston upon Hull: this is separately governed, but dominates the local economy and transport links, so it's convenient to describe it here.
By rail
Hull has trains to London Kings Cross (some direct, but most with a change at Doncaster), Leeds, Manchester Piccadilly, Sheffield and York.
By bus
Two direct National Express (NX) coaches per day link Hull with London Victoria, 7 hours.
By sea
P&O Ferries sail nightly to Hull from Rotterdam, 12 hours.
Hull and Beverley have good public transport. Beyond those, a car is the most convenient way to get around, though there are also limited rural bus services.
