Marie Fitzpatrick: Rural Women CEO on the NZ Post potentially reducing their delivery services

View descriptionShare

There's hopes rural communities will be considered before changes are made to NZ Post's services.  

Options include dropping to delivering two days a week in urban areas, instead of three, and going from five times a week in rural areas down to three. 

Additionally, postal outlets will be reduced from 880 to 500. 

Rural Women CEO Marie Fitzpatrick says postal services are essential for rural communities that don't always have access to broadband. 

She said that while this consultation focuses on mail specifically and excludes courier posts, those services are done in the same van if you live rurally.
