Called into Males Garage yesterday afternoon and was told that the company will be closing by the end of the year.
This is due to a cumpulsory purchase order placed by the airport on the company - as part of the planned development of Terminal.
Despite the past development of the original 1960's terminal, Males continued to operate and provided a very useful service to airport employees, and local residents, wanting their cars serviced and MOT checked.
This will be one of the last of the 'old' buildings that has survived the expansion of the airport. I just hope that the authority will not delay too long in commencing work on the new apron area.
To those who worked at Males - thanks for your service. and I hope you find alternative employment soon.
Now that is sad news! We live in North Wales and use Males instead of using the Terminal Car Parks. Our family have used them for god knows how many years, and this is sad news that they will be no more at the Airport!
To echo Scottie Dog's thanks, all the best to all at Males! And thanks!
