Users of Hull s newly opened Castle Street Bridge have been asked to refrain from fitting padlocks onto the structure amid concerns they could cause long term damage. A spokesperson for Highways England, which runs the bridge officially known as Murdoch s Connection, said users could take selfies instead to mark a loving moment . It follows Twitter comments from Hull City Council Chief Executive Matt Jukes who said there was no set policy on padlocks but some were recently removed from Scale Lane Bridge.
