| Two temporary Post Office counters are due to open in the Civic Centre in Uxbridge on Thursday 6 August from 9am, after Hillingdon Council stepped in to ensure the continuation of the vital service following the closure of the High Street branch in May. The council has worked very closely alongside Post Office Ltd since TG Jones announced the previous branch would close, exploring potential options for a temporary location while a permanent home is sought. Subject to smooth setup and testing, the counters will be available from next Thursday and located at the top of the stairs and ramp, near the entrance to Uxbridge Library. They will be open to the public from 9am to 5.30pm Monday to Friday, 9am to 1pm on Saturdays, and offer 95 per cent of the services available at any permanent post office. The Post Office will look to open a permanent branch at a new location later this year. |
