For some time now, so-called 'supercars' have been cruising through Alderley Edge, mostly on weekends, and have drawn groups of admiring fans. Areas around Alderley have also suffered from the effects these cars on the surrounding roads as they travel to the village.
There have been concerns in the recent past about the speed and noise from the cars passing through Chelford on the Knutsford – Macclesfield road, Alderley Road and Holmes Chapel road and the bypass on their way to and from Alderley Edge.
Things have come to a head in Alderley, with the results of a traffic survey leading to action by Alderley Parish Council and Cheshire East Council.
