Mike Hedges AM welcomes the news that Conway Road Post Office at 30 Conway Road, Penlan, Swansea, SA5 7BD is to go a refurbishment which will see significantly enhanced services available at this location.
Mike Said…. ‘I greatly welcome the news that this Post Office is to have a significant upgrade. Post Offices provide a host of services to the local community, in addition to their core functions, related to the Royal Mail; they are often seen as a focal point in a community and I congratulate the Royal Mail and the Post Master for working together to achieve this outcome. I look forward to visiting this facility in the future.’
Sue Whitehall from the Royal Mail said…..
The I’m delighted to tell you that we’ve decided, with the Postmaster’s agreement, to change the above Post Office branch to one of our new main style branches.
This change is part of a major programme of modernisation taking place across the Post Office network, the largest in the history of Post Office Ltd. The Programme is underpinned by Government investment and will see up to 8,000 branches modernised and additional investment in over 3,000 community and outreach branches. Our aim is to create a more modern and convenient retail experience for customers that will include longer opening hours.
What will this mean for customers?
a newly refurbished branch providing a modern environment for customers
the same products with the addition of Car tax
longer opening hours
selected Post Office services will also be available at the retail counter outside main counter times
Your new-look Post Office is scheduled to open at the current location on Wednesday 17 February 2016 at 13:00 – it will need to close for refurbishment on Saturday 6 February at 12:30. If there are any unforeseen schedule changes which mean these dates change, posters will be displayed in branch to let customers know. I’ve included details of other Post Office branches in the area that customers can use during the refurbishment and some useful information about the change. Posters will now be displayed in branch so customers are aware of the change.
Getting in touch
I’m happy to answer any questions you may have about the new service. Please email or write to me via our Communication & Consultation team, whose contact details are provided overleaf.
We look forward to welcoming customers to their new main Post Office branch.
