Royal Mail makes another change to its delivery days

Royal Mail has issued an update on its delivery days.

The courier company made several changes to its operations last month.

Mainly halting letters or post being delivered on the weekend due to the coronavirus crisis.

At the time the temporary measure was put in place due to various factors.

This included "high levels of coronavirus-related absences and necessary social distancing measures."

However, Royal Mail has now said it will resume on Saturdays, reports Manchester Evening News.

The Royal Mail explained: "We will resume the six-day-a-week delivery of letters and parcels from June 13."

In April the postal service made a number of changes in a bid "to protect the health and safety of our people and the general public".

It also said to protect workers and customers as much as possible, the Royal Mail is minimising contact during delivery.
