Stop over population and leave our little town alone.

It would not only be costly and time consuming to have to go elsewhere to get the mail, it is also bad for the environment.

The collections counter at the office is always busy, frequently with a queue, which shows how well used and important it is.

If it goes out of town, a poorer service will be the result. The council should be organising a combined facility for road/rail/postal services, all based on Wickford Town Centre, not even more eyesore blocks of flats.

We live in Wickford, and should keep our mail office.
We do not want any more flats here, they belong in Basildon.

It is ideal being a central location for public to collect mail (when necessary) in centre of Wickford; for Royal Mail to access Railway station, all roads are easily accessed and there's no disruption to others. It was purpose built- the sorting office fulfils it's purpose in every way. All boxes ticked for location, ease of access for public and R Mail vehicles. I strongly oppose an out of town Or out of district re-location.

If the area is big enough for 173 flats where in the town centre is a space big enough for a new office and more to the point all the delivery vans.I think that if the council were to get the office there would suddenly be nowhere in town to go to,so they would put it on the industrial estate,which means if you have no transport it becomes very difficult if the post or parcel is needed quickly.

Where in the town centre could the sorting office be located. At present the High St is a mess of parked cars outside empty or souless shops. Imagine the posties swarming around this lot. All possible sites have been given away for flats.

Parking is a problem and getting in and out of Wickford during certain times of the day is sometimes almost impossible.
