Watford and stevenage MC to shut and move to new site in hemel. watford delys and collections to move to new site somewhere still within watford. kings langley berkhamstead dely offices to join hemel delys at new MC site . stevenage delys to stay at old mail center to be joined by welwyn garden city and hitchin old stevenage office to become a mails processing unit. all other delivery units that were in review to stay as is this info was briefed to all watford dely staff this morn.

I reckon they'll want Hemel Stevenage & Watford processing in the new place by next September/October followed by the deliveries early 2012,got to admit i was surprised that RM decided to put deliveries in the same building as a processing operation,i would of thought they would try to keep the two functions seperate,that also brings me to my next point,with Hemel,Berko & Kings Langley deliveries & the three mail centres being combined,the car parking is going to be a bit of a squeeze

Any guesses of the number of staff there will be at the new site?

No idea.......no idea of the dates yet either,my main worry is the fact that three mail centres rolled into one + Hemel,Berko & Kings langley deliveries where are we going to park our cars(if i am lucky enough to be offered a job at the new mail centre )yellow lines on the roads all round the site and only 220 car parking places for staff on site.There is a public car park down the road by the shops,but as to weather or not thats free,i know not!!!!

I think the parking for Royal Mail vehicles is going to be tight in the yard anyway,all them Bipper vans from the 3 delivery offices + the 600's from the 3 mail centres

Does anyone know where the workshops will be? almost certainly no space on the Maylands Avenue site for them.

As far as i know its just the one HUGE warehouse right on Maylands Ave,entrance is in Maxted Road.

Its going to be an out-house for packets this christmas,so i guess the installation of machinery or any other work they need to do will not start until January

I wonder if Hemel will continue taking part of Swindon's outward if they are now taking on Watford and Stevenage as well
