As USPS institutes network reform, mail delivery
hits a 3-year low
2.22.2024 -
GovExec.com reports: "Postal management has repeatedly pointed to isolated incidents causing temporary disruptions
- rather than any systemic issues - to explain the declining performance, though the trend has now persisted for nearly six months and is causing stakeholders and advocates to question the true root of the problem.
USPS is now delivering just 83% of First-Class mail on time during the current fiscal quarter, its worst rate in three years. That is down from 86% in the first quarter and 91% in both the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 and the same period last year." -
