Telecoms giant BT has announced plans to close more than 270 offices but maintain eight towns and cities as "key locations" for the group.
The company said it wanted to consolidate its existing portfolio of more than 300 offices across the 海角视频 into just 30 locations.
Eight towns and cities across the 海角视频 have been earmarked as what BT is calling key locations in the company's biggest-ever workplace consolidation programme.

They are Birmingham, Belfast, Bristol, Cardiff, Edinburgh, Ipswich, London and Manchester.
The rationalisation of its offices is expected to be completed by 2023 and all will have the new 5G mobile technology.
Known as 'The Better Workplace Programme', the 30 bases will be housed in modern buildings with corporate offices, contact centres and specialist sites.
BT's telephone exchanges will be retained by the group.
Though detailed plans of BT's footprint in each location are still to be finalised, some existing buildings will be refurbished while others will see BT move into new offices.

"Revealing these eight locations is just the first step.
"We have dedicated teams working on identifying the best buildings to move into and which ones to redesign for the future.
"As a result of this programme, BT people will be housed in inspiring offices that are better for our business and better for our customers."
