Plans to redevelop Culmore Post Office in Derry have been welcomed by SDLP Councillor Angela Dobbins.
According to Cllr Dobbins, along with modernising the premises, the new-look post office will open on Sundays with business hours extended to 8.00pm every day.
Cllr Dobbins said the refurb would also mean increased amount of products and services available
She added: "This planned redevelopment is very welcome news for the many local people who use this Post Office regularly but who often need to drive three-four miles to access a full range of services at another branch.
"Work is planned for a week between September and October this year with a consultation of local people currently underway.
“I encourage as many people to get in touch with Royal Mail as possible and let them know how the Culmore branch can be improved.
“They can do so by emailing comments@postoffice.co.uk"
