Today I received notification from the Post Office that following its period of consultation it intends to proceed with its proposal to move Barnhill Post Office from its current location in Campfield Square to MS News, which is just 20 metres away from the current branch.
I am advised that the new Post Office will operate from two Post Office serving points located at the shop counter enabling customers to access Post Office services alongside retail transactions. There will also be significantly longer opening times and the new Post Office will provide services seven day a week.
The premises will have a wide front door with a permanent ramp and internally there will be a hearing loop and space for wheelchair users. The date for the relocation is Tuesday 24 February 2015.
