Feel strongly about the direction Royal Mail is going
We have already lost our morning deliveries second deliveries ,post now arriving anytime from 1pm-5pm
Now seems to concentrating on profit and dividends for shareholders before customers needs
Closing the sorting office would mean at least a 10 mile round trip to collect items this would greatly be of concern to our older residents and non drivers as there is no direct local services to green lane sorting office so at least a 2 hour journey ,not to mention the increase in greenhouse gases that would occur from transporting the mail and posties to Stockport and back each day in approx 14 Diesel engined vehicles
Why change a system and office that's been part of the British way of life for 500 years
How long is left on the lease for the Marple sorting office??
Re:
You will Collect mail from green lane near pyramid in Stockport
no direct bus route to the office
postage helps pays for bonuses for bosses, it's easy to check the payments online that are being paid to senior RM management
if you want to see the future of the postal service see what's happened to the Canadian postal service a few years back who just happened to have Mrs M Green in charge before she was brought into Royal Mail
This is a ridiculous plan. Our local offices are a vital part of the community and very well used. Regardless of what time I go to collect a parcel it is always busy at the Bredbury office. This is not an underused service. The Stockport office is not accessible with no direct public transport links and collecting parcels will require more car journeys adding to pollution and congestion.

I have lived in Woodley for 50 years and have always been impressed by the service provided by the Romiley Delivery Office and by the obliging staff there. My husband and I are both in our late 70's and find getting into Stockport difficult. As we now have to do an increasing amount of mail order shopping, we would find it difficult to collect parcels from the Stockport office. To close the Romiley Office will make life much more difficult for elderly residents.
