What will happen to the Postmen/Postwomen?

I seem to recall initial proposals were to take a unit on the Hollins.

Relocation is a feature of the Chadkirk St delevopment as I understand it.

Why should they move they still have a long lease left .

If the sorting office doesn't go then the Chadwick Street site cannot be developed in the way that best supports the Council's argument against Asda. Oversimplified, you could say do you want the sorting office to leave town or do you want Asda to leave town? Yet again, even if the sorting office leaves there is no guarantee that Asda will. In reality you could end up with two supermarkets one where the sorting office is and one on Hibbert Lane.

Well yes the removal of the sorting facility will clearly make it a more marketable site. So to be welcomed I would have thought.

Like any sitting tenant, they will no doubt be very happy to move if they can find acceptable alternative premises, and if their current landlord (i.e. SMBC in this case) makes it worth their while by paying them to go.

I remember seeing somewhere that the Sorting Office is to close? If this is so, then what will happen to the Postmen and women? Where will they have to go to collect the mail and how will this affect the post delivery? Does anybody know anything?
