arm, is streamlining its London operation, splitting the King's Cross branch's work between a new depot at Muswell Hill in north London and existing depots at Dartford in Kent and Coulsdon in Surrey.
The moves will be phased during the summer, trunking services will be re-routed accordingly and, says Lynx's sales and marketing director Theo de Pencier: "We will be handling over 10,000 parcels a day through Muswell Hill, in a round-the-clock operation. Our customers should benefit from the improved accessibility of the new depot — sited just 100 yards off the North Circular — which is much easier to operate than the over-congested King's Cross site."
Few job losses are involved says Lynx, and the majority of King's Cross' 200 staff will move to Muswell Hill.
