Post Office Names
The suburbs of St. Albans and Shirley are served by five post offices and this has led to a great deal of confusion in the public mind, a Post Office spokesman said yesterday. The official St Albans Post Office is at 183 Papanui road, but more-or-less in the same suburb is the official Shirley Post Office at 45 Warrington Street. Also in St. Albans is the Christchurch North Post Office at 1069 Colombo street. This post office will soon be rebuilt at the corner of Edgeware road and Trafalgar street.
The Shirley East Post Office is at the corner of Marshland and Shirley roads and the Shirley North Post Office is at the corner of Emmett street and Acheson avenue. Postal authorities say that prompt dispatch of mails in the St Albans and Shirley areas would be ensured if people gave their addresses in relation to their nearest post office.
