Businesses, residents protest ongoing Postal Service delays

U.S. Postal Service’s 10-year consolidation plan under scrutiny.

United States Postal Service officials claim they have resolved “early transitional issues” for Southern Oregon as part of an ongoing consolidation, but state and national leaders, as well as postal customers, say little has improved.
