Riverhead Exchange is a series of bus stops in Grimsby. It was formerly a bus station.
The former bus station was called Freshney bus station and was situated outside the Freshney Place shopping centre. [1] In 2013, plans were submitted to redevelop the bus station site by moving the bus stops. [2] A nearby building was leased and a new cafe with toilets and bus departure information was built. The new bus station, dubbed "Riverhead Exchange", was opened in July 2014. The site of the former bus station was expected to become a cinema in an expansion of Freshney Place, but as of 2019, the site remains undeveloped. [3] [4] The cafe was closed in 2019 as the council decided not to renew its lease, reportedly due to financial restraints and low usage. [5]
There are now proposals to build a new bus station in Grimsby. [6]

The River Freshney is a river in the English county of North East Lincolnshire. The town of Grimsby stands on its banks. It rises from at least four springs on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds, although local folklore and oral tradition has it springing from Welbeck Hill. Originally it entered the tidal River Humber at Pyewipe, north west of Grimsby, but has been re-routed and now supplies Grimsby Docks. There was an existing haven within the borough of Grimsby but this suffered greatly with silting problems so in 1669 landowners agreed to the diversion of the Freshney through the town to the haven to provide fresh water and improve the flow. It is believed the work was completed in the very early 18th century.
