Upton today
is most notable for its central location between Birkenhead
and West Kirby. Upton
is situated at the junction of roads from Birkenhead, Moreton,
Greasby, Saughall Massie and Arrowe Park. The road network was
further enhanced with the building of a bypass in the early
1980s. The M53 motorway, at Junction 2, is situated less than
a mile from the centre of the village and connects directly to
the bypass.
The exception to this is rail transport, as
Upton is
not a part of the major rail link from Birkenhead to West
Kirby, which instead passes around the more densely populated
coast. Upton
railway station exists as part of the Borderlands Line between
Bidston and Wrexham. Due to its location, the station is more
of service to the Noctorum community, rather than
Upton. This
is not considered a problem however, as the locality is well
served by regular bus services.
