Morwell is copping yet another blow to its retail strip as Bank Australia announced today it will close the Commercial Road branch on September 30.
Bank Australia will instead convert the branch into an office space in order to provide diversified local jobs.
Customers will be able to access branches in Moe and Traralgon.
The bank plans to hold an information session for local customers to discuss the branch closure.
Bank Australia managing director Damien Walsh said the Morwell branch closure was a “bittersweet” and “difficult decision to make”.
“But we are proud to be increasing our investment in the area through upgraded office space and new roles,” Mr Walsh said.
