NORFOLK, Va. (WAVY) - Protesters gathered Monday to save the Berkley Post Office from closing.

The post office is located off Liberty Street in Norfolk.

If it closes, residents would have to travel more than a mile to Chesapeake or downtown Norfolk for counter service.

The possible post office closure is due to a drastic drop in revenue for the U.S. Postal Service .

WAVY News has a crew at the protest. Look for more updates on-air and online.
