Last Post Office in Telford Centre due to close on 2 January

Overview

The Post Office inside the Telford Centre is scheduled to close on 2 January due to the closure of the TG Jones store (formerly WHSmith) where it is located. The closure leaves the town centre without a Post Office branch, though officials are searching for a replacement location, which could take around six months.

Key points

  • The Telford Centre Post Office will close on 2 January as part of a restructure involving the closure of up to 150 TG Jones stores.
  • The TG Jones store itself is set to close a week after the Post Office, on 9 January.
  • The Post Office is looking for a replacement branch, a process expected to take about six months.
  • Alternative nearby branches include Alma Avenue, Fourth Avenue, and Oakengates.
  • Local MP Shaun Davies has urged the Post Office to minimise any gap in service for town centre residents.
