  In this paper, we have investigated a bulk viscous anisotropic Universe and
constrained its model parameters with recent $H(z)$ and Pantheon compilation
data. Using cosmic chronometric technique, we estimate the present value of
Hubble's constant as $H_{0} = 69.39 \pm 1.54~km~s^{-1}Mpc^{-1}$, $70.016 \pm
1.65~km~s^{-1}Mpc^{-1}$ and $69.36 \pm 1.42~km~s^{-1}Mpc^{-1}$ by bounding our
derived model with recent $H(z)$ data, Pantheon and joint $H(z)$ and Pantheon
data respectively. The present age of the Universe is specified as $t_0=
0.9796H_0^{-1}\sim 13.79$ Gyrs. The model favours a transitioning Universe with
the transition red-shift as $z_{t} = 0.73$. We have reconstructed the jerk
parameter using the observational data sets. From the analysis of the jerk
parameter, it is observed that, our derived model shows a marginal departure
from the concordance $\Lambda$CDM model.
