A POST office is set to move into new 'modern' premises.

Bodelwyddan Post Office at 5 Church View is expected to move 800 metres to Spar on Abergele Road.

A six-week public consultation has now been launched.

Proposals are part of a modernisation programme across the Post Office network.

Damien Haydock, commercial partnership executive, said: “We are making it easier for customers to get their cash, send and collect their mail and do their banking because we know how important these services are to local residents.

"We are confident that this vibrant new-style Post Office will meet customer needs. This modernisation is part of a major investment programme, the largest in the history of the Post Office.”

A number of Post Office have moved inside convenience stores in recent months.

Customers are being promised a "modern retail environment", banking services for personal customers and small businesses, the same range of Post Office services, postage, home shopping returns and Local Collect.

The consultation will close on December 18.
