The Post Office has confirmed that Freshwater Post Office will be temporarily closed from Saturday (5th February) until 24th March whilst Co-Operative Afton Road is transformed into Tesco Freshwater.
Post Office services will cease at Afton Road at 17:30 on Saturday, with The Co-Operative closing the store fully at 16:00 the following day.
The refit is due to take approximately 7 weeks and the branch is, therefore, due to reopen on Thursday 24th March at 13:00.
During the refit customers alternative Post Offices include:
- Totland Bay Post Office, The Broadway Inn, Broadway, Totland Bay, PO39 0BL
- Yarmouth Post Office, Quay Street, Yarmouth, PO41 0PD
- Brighstone Post Office, Main Road, Brighstone, Newport, PO30 4AH
Damien Haydock, Post Office Partner Account Manager, said:
“We apologise for any inconvenience caused to our customers during the work. The safety of our customers is of paramount, therefore, to allow for the refurbishment work to take place, it will be necessary for the service to close temporarily.”
