whats the public transport like in hull?
What exactly do you need to know? There are regular busses but no subway...
In the worst case, taxis were not too expensive and a safe bet to go out...
Much the same as everywhere else in the UK. Available, but often not exactly where or when you want it.
The main roads have buses every few minutes through the day but outer suburbs are probably only a 30 minute or hourly service at the best.
Hull really needs a tram system.
Where do you need to travel to and from?

The bus station has now been relocated to the Albion Street car park to allow a new one to be built.
But hardly anyone knows where their bus stops in town now, so asking people wouldn't be good. Try the station office.
Be careful if you're travelling on a bus at night because there are vandals and drunk people.
I agree that Hull needs a tram system, like Sheffield has. It would make the city less polluted and would be a better option. I wish the city council spent the money for the giant TV on a tram system instead.
Take the 'Fish Trail'. It is a walk linking up important sites in Hull, from museums to things that would be normaly missed. It was set up in 1992 but is going under a regenration at the moment but it's really worth doing to see the old town.
Hull is the only city in the UK with its own phone company, Kingston Communications, hence the cream coloured phone boxes.
KC was formed in 1910 and gives its services to over 185,000 subscribers today.

Do a day trip to Beverly (just north of Hull) It is a lovely small town with a georgeous minster.
The Humber Bridge park is also nice for views of the humber bridge and the humber
If wnadering around Hull - head down to the old town and the marina - both are nice areas which are not so often visited.
Kingston upon Hull can be recahed by train of car, but what more traditional way is there to reach a harbour by boat. From Rotterdam North Sea Ferries brings you there in a comfortable journey.
All places in centre are well to be done on foot (there is a Hull-city-walk description at the Touristoffice). By car of buss the attractions around the town can be reached.
