Customers have been welcomed into Guisborough’s freshly revamped Post Office.
The Post Office opened its newly modernised main branch at Guisborough Post Office, on Westgate, this week.
The refurbishments have come as part of a Government investment programme of more than £2bn to keep open and update branches nationwide.
The move is part of major modernisation programme across the Post Office network designed to make it easier for customers to do business, through longer opening hours and modern open plan environments.
Thr Post Office closed for two weeks for the work to take place, and was officially reopened this week by Middlesbrough South and East Cleveland Labour MP Tom Blenkinsop and longest serving customer Gladys Russell, 94, of Guisborough.
The Guisborough service will now be provided from five counter positions, including two new open-plan style counters, two secure fortress positions and a combi-counter, where the Post Office terminal will sit alongside the retail till.
Local residents and small business customers will be able to access a wide range of Post Office and mail services
Customers for the majority of UK banks can also use their post office for online banking cash deposits and withdrawals and bill payments.
The Guisborough branch will open from 8.30am to 5.30pm Monday and Tuesday and from 9am to 5.30pm from Wednesday to Saturday.
Kathryn Alexander, area manager said: “We know how important Post Office services are to residents in Guisborough and we are confident that this vibrant modern Post Office at the heart of the community will be popular.
She added: “The modernisation is part of a major Government investment programme that is enabling us to continue investing in the Post Office network.”
