Shantallow Post Office to reopen at Greenhaw Road in Derry
Shantallow Post Office is to reopen at a new location in the autumn.
It’s been confirmed the branch will be re-opening at the Supervalu store on the Greenhaw Road on Tuesday, October 20, 2026 at 1pm.
The post office was formerly located at the Supervalu in Northside Shopping Centre but ceased operating in March when the franchisee of the store took the difficult decision to close.
"We are keen to restore services to this community as soon as possible, so we have decided to go ahead with our plans. The re-opening of the branch in a new location is a commercial decision for Post Office Ltd and we are not seeking feedback on this aspect of the change,” Tracey Newton-Crofts, Post Office Corporate Account Lead explained in an information letter.
Sinn Féin Councillor Sandra Duffy said: "It is welcome news that the Shantallow Post Office is set to reopen in October.
"It was important that this vital service remained open and continued to serve local residents.
"I wish the owners every success in this venture.”
The Post Office is seeking the public’s views on access into and inside the new location.
