Transport
The villages were formerly on the main Crewe to Sandbach road. This had been constructed as a turnpike road from Nantwich to Wheelock Wharf on the Grand Trunk Canal in 1816. This became the A534 road, which was diverted out of the area with the opening of the Haslington Bypass in 1990.
There are no rail services in the immediate area, the nearest station being four miles (6.5 km) away at Crewe on the West Coast Main Line. Bus services are provided by Arriva North West, Harrier and Warrington Borough Transport.

Famous quotes containing the word transport:
“One may disavow and disclaim vices that surprise us, and whereto our passions transport us; but those which by long habits are rooted in a strong and ... powerful will are not subject to contradiction. Repentance is but a denying of our will, and an opposition of our fantasies.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
