U.S. Postal Service officials say they will close Lansing’s Collins Road mail processing center.  The Lansing State Journal says postal officials have not set a timeframe for the closure. 

Operations will shift to Grand Rapids and Pontiac.  More than 350 people are employed at the facility. 

The location will continue to offer mailing and related services.
