Weather impacts on Friday’s newspapers in Victoria

Dear Newsagent/Retailer,

As you are aware, there continues to be severe weather conditions across most of Victoria, resulting in flooding and a large number of road closures.

This may impact readers of tomorrow’s newspapers.

Your deliveries may arrive later than normal. Please advise your staff and customers accordingly, and convey our apologies.

The safety of everyone engaged for and on behalf of News Corp Australia in producing and delivering our products is our main priority.

Where relevant, a reminder to always exercise caution whilst performing deliveries and to ensure that you never enter flooded roads.

For the latest flood and weather warnings see www.bom.gov.au/vic/warnings/ and https://emergency.vic.gov.au/respond/ along with advice from your local authorities.

If you have any concerns on this matter, please don’t hesitate to contact News Retail Support, your Area Logistics Manager or Area Sales Manager to discuss further.

Kind Regards,

News Corp Australia
