Earlier this year the post office on Midsummer Boulevard was damaged in a suspected arson attack in which a man poured liquid on to the counter and set it alight.
A temporary branch was opened at the Milton Keynes City Council offices on Saxon Gate East following the incident at the Midsummer Boulevard site.
