Overview

We are proposing to merge Morningside Post Office and Bruntsfield Post Office into one modern new branch at the nearby vacant retail store at 28-30 Morningside Road, Edinburgh, EH10 4DA. Should we proceed with our proposal, the new branch would be run by our new retail partner.

The proposed merger of these branches is part of our on-going plans to create a Post Office network that is modern and sustainable.  Our priority is to ensure that we provide the services that will meet customer needs, both now and into the future, and secure the long-term viability of Post Office services in the area.  We are satisfied that following the proposed merger, there will be sufficient capacity in the surrounding Post Office network for our customers to continue to access Post Office services.  Subject to consultation, we propose to merge Morningside and Bruntsfield Post Office branches in February 2019.
