Santa Paula Postal Customer Update #3

Mail Delivery Resumes for Rural Route 002 Customers

SANTA PAULA, CA — Both lanes of Highway 150 between Ojai and Santa Paula opened Wednesday, July 31, 2024, after being closed since a mountain of mud buried the two-lane highway following heavy rains in February 2024. As a result, mail delivery has now resumed to the affected customers on Rural Route 002.

Mail will no longer be delivered to the temporary postal boxes that were set up for delivery in front of Santa Paula Carrier Annex. Customers have until August 31, 2024, to retrieve all mail from the temporary postal boxes.

We want to thank all our customers for their patience during this time.

The United States Postal Service is an independent federal establishment, mandated to be self-financing and to serve every American community through the affordable, reliable and secure delivery of mail and packages to 169 million addresses six and often seven days a week. Overseen by a bipartisan Board of Governors, the Postal Service is implementing a 10-year transformation plan, Delivering for America, to modernize the postal network, restore long-term financial sustainability, dramatically improve service across all mail and shipping categories, and maintain the organization as one of America’s most valued and trusted brands.

The Postal Service generally receives no tax dollars for operating expenses and relies on the sale of postage, products and services to fund its operations.
