Royal Mail has been affected by the impacts of the coronavirus crisis and snow and icy weather conditions. The company has shared an update on the areas which could be experiencing delays.
“We’re sorry that some addresses may experience disruption as a result of snow and ice, particularly in parts of Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex and Kent.”
With snowy weather predicted to continue, some Britons could still be hit with delays from the post service.
It also explained “resourcing issues” could cause some delays across the country.
“Deliveries may also be disrupted in some areas due to resourcing issues in a number of our delivery offices,” the statement added.

The list included Barking (IG11), Burslem (ST6), Caernarfon DO (LL54, LL55), Chatham (ME4, ME5), Chingford DO (E4), Croydon (CR0, CR9) and Debden (IG7-IG10).

The postal service stated those postcodes would possibly be hit by delays last week.
