SOME people in Tiverton are getting their mail earlier in the morning, while others are waiting until lunchtime for post under changes to delivery methods introduced by Royal Mail.

The changes affect the EX16 and the EX18 postcode areas and are coming into force over the next few weeks.

Postmen and women will use new delivery methods and adopt revised delivery routes as the phased changes are introduced.

Royal Mail is writing to every address in Tiverton about the changes which affect households and businesses.

In the Tiverton area:

Royal Mail will continue to deliver in the morning and for a longer period during the day.

Many customers will continue to get their mail by lunchtime.

The time customers receive mail will depend on where they live on the new delivery route. This may be earlier or later than current delivery times.

Royal Mail says it is making the changes because the way in which we communicate with each other has changed dramatically.

Fewer letters are now posted and Royal Mail says it need to organise delivery routes to be as efficient as possible.
