That definitely needs to he changed. The central cluster deliveries is definitely faster even with limited parcel lockers which can always be added where needed. We have routes with mostly clustered deliveries with over 1500 stops and routes that are all door to door walking with 1/3 that many stops.

When the city updates sidewalks to make them ADA compliant the individual mailboxes are removed.
