A supermarket branch in a Fenland town is to shut. 

Tesco Express in March will close on September 6. 

The store in Broad Street will remain closed for several weeks while it is changed into a Budgens shop. 

The post office inside Tesco is reportedly due to remain open. 

A spokesperson for Budgens said: “We’re really proud to support our independent retailers in local communities, right across the UK, and are delighted to be welcoming a brand new Budgens store to March, Cambridgeshire in the coming weeks.”

A spokesperson for Tesco said the store will be closed later this month and, following a short closure to refit the shop, it will re-open as a Budgens later in the year. 

They added that Tesco colleagues will have the choice to transfer to the new Budgens store and that the changes will be discussed during a period of consultation.
