A TEIGNBRIDGE Post Office facing closure could remain open as new franchise plans are unveiled.

The Post Office has today, Wednesday, June 4, announced a proposal to run Devon sites at risk of closure under a new franchise.

And this includes Teignmouth.

The proposal is for the sites in the South West to be run by South Coast Retail, based in Swanage.

‘Our proposed franchise plans mean branches will continue to operate from the same premises while the long-term permanent proposal is confirmed, with customers being able to continue accessing the same products and services with the same opening hours’ a spokesperson for the Post Office said.
