THE Post Office is proposing to move Alcester Post Office from its current location to create a modern main-style branch with extended opening hours.
The proposed new location for the branch is 30 High Street, Alcester, B49 5AB. This is 40 metres from its current site and both customers and interested parties are being asked to give their views on the proposals in a six-week public consultation.
The proposals envisage the branch being open from 9am to 5.30pm Monday to Saturday, with selected Post Office products and services available from the retail counter during shop opening hours which are 7am to 5.30pm, Monday to Saturday.
The opening hours which will increase by an extra 17 hours a week will offer more choice of times to visit.
Suzanne Richardson, Post Office regional manager, said: “We are making it easier for customers to get cash, send and collect their mail and do their banking because we know how important these services are to local residents.
“We are confident that this vibrant new-style Post Office at the heart of the local community will meet customer needs.”
During the public consultation, Post Office Ltd welcomes feedback on any issues customers would like considered before a final decision is taken on this proposal. The consultation will close on 4 July 2017. Submissions can be made during the consultation by Freepost YOUR COMMENTS to Post Office Ltd, via email to [email protected], via the Customer Helpline on 03457 22 33 44 or Textphone 03457 22 33 55.
Customers can also share their views online through the quick and easy questionnaire at postofficeviews.co.uk with the branch code 153246.
