context_section_description: A good bus service is operated by Stagecoach.  The number 36 comes every 15 minutes, heading towards Middlesbrough via Stockton, Billingham and Norton and to Hartlepool via the Fens.  There was also the 527 Service, operated by Arriva, which came every 60 minutes, and headed into Hartlepool, and terminated at Maritime Avenue on the Marina but in 2011 this bus service was axed due to the withdrawal of financial support from Hartlepool Borough Council. A petition has been signed by residents to encourage this decision to be re-evaluated but has not had the service reinstated.
  There was once an operating railway station at the bottom of the village, but this is now disused and derelict however the Middlesbrough to Carlisle trains still pass through the village.
