A POST Office in Glasgow will reopen following a major refurbishment. 

Peterson Park Post Office, on Yokermill Road, closed in mid-September last year to allow the extensive building work, which is being undertaken by the new Postmaster, to take place. 

The new-look Post Office is now due to reopen on Thursday, April 13 at 1pm.

After the refit, customers will be able to access Post Office services at a serving point integrated with the retail counter. 

The new opening hours will be Monday to Friday, 9am to 5.30pm, and Saturday, from 9am to 12.30pm, and will no longer close at lunchtime.

Scott Hamilton, Post Office Network Provision Lead, said: "We apologise for any inconvenience caused to our customers during the work.

"The safety of our customers is paramount, therefore, to allow for the building work to take place, it has been necessary for the service to close temporarily."

Peterson Park Post Office is located at 14 Yokermill Road. 

Alternative branches until it reopens include Dyke Road Post Office at 284 Dyke Road and Burnham Terrace Post Office at 839 Anniesland Road.
