More bad news could be on the horizon for post office customers in Wokingham who are already battling queues at the town’s last remaining branch.

Users of the now-closed Barkham Road and London Road sub-post office branches are now forced to use the Broad Street office, meaning daily queues out the door have become inevitable.

And the situation could get worse in the future, as a Government commons industry select committee revealed three weeks ago as many as 4,000 branches nationally could close because of Post Office Ltd’s trading losses.

Local postmasters who breathed a sigh of relief after the 2,500 branch closures nationally missed their post office, may still face losing their business.

The news will be worrying for customers at Broad Street, who have hit out at the lack of extra staff at the branch since the other two town branches closed.
