Postal delivery concerns

There has been much attention recently on the problems with postal deliveries in the east of the city, with a huge backlog of deliveries from the Royal Mail Sorting Office at West Pitkerro.

However, as the Evening Telegraph reported last night, there are similar issues in at least parts of Dundee West.   I first raised these earlier this month, but despite assurances from Royal Mail, I have this week received further complaints about erratic postal deliveries and late delivery of mail - complaints coming from the Pentland, Shaftesbury Road and Perth Road areas.  

I have raised constituents' concerns with Royal Mail's External Relations Manager and asked for assurances that postal delivery reliability will be restored as soon as possible.
