Overview

We are proposing to move Old Street Post Office to the nearby Co-op retail store at 185 Old Street, London, EC1V 9NP, where it would be operated by our new Retail Partner and opening hours would be increased to include Saturday afternoon and Sundays.

 This move is part of the continuing modernisation of our branch network.  We believe the most effective way to secure the long term viability of Post Office services in Old Street is through a carefully selected retail partner, and we are confident that our proposal is the best way of safeguarding services for the community for years to come.  The vast majority of our 11,500 Post Office branches, large and small, are successfully operated in this way with retail partners and we believe this is the best approach to keeping Post Offices in main shopping locations and at the heart of communities where they play an important role in local economies.
