A consultation over improvements to two city roundabouts is under way.

Hull City Council said the changes at Ennerdale Leisure Centre and Wawne Road/Bude Road would increase space for vehicles and improve cycle and pedestrian crossing.

The six-week online consultation is open until 8 August, and there will also be in-person sessions in the Kingswood area.

Mark Ieronimo, the council's cabinet portfolio holder for transport and infrastructure, said with traffic levels and the population expected to grow, the council needed to update the city's infrastructure.

The council said it anticipated that work on the two roundabouts would start over the winter.
