BT consultation on closure of phone boxes
Summary
BT has announced plans to remove 63 public payphones in South Norfolk. According to BT, use of public payphones has declined due to the growing use of mobile phones.
If you use any of the payphones on their list, or you would like to see the phone boxes themselves kept even if the service is taken away, then please get in touch with us (contact details below) or your local parish or town council by 6 September 2008 and we will make sure BT get your comments.
The list of phonebox locations is given below, and you can also download the letter BT sent us explaining their plans and the consultation.
