POSTAL deliveries to addresses in North Yorkshire are among the most efficient in the country.
Figures produced for the Royal Mail show that people in the YO postcode area are among those most likely to receive a next day delivery.
Statistics for the last financial year show that 92.4 per cent of first class mail for the area was delivered the next working day.
The independently monitored figures show that North Yorkshire's postmen and women also beat the national target of 92.1 per cent.
Area manager Alan Braithwaite said: "These results are a credit to the hard work and dedication of all our staff, who deliver around four million items of mail a week to almost 250,000 social and business addresses in the YO postcode area."
