Amazon is certainly not short for innovative ways to reach customers. As Transport for London (TFL) prepares for the closure of its ticket offices in 2015 and the transformation of the London Underground into a 24-hour service, online retailing giant Amazon is reportedly looking to introduce package collection points in several stations across the city.

By turning the soon-to-be vacant offices into collection points for Amazon parcels, customers would be able to collect goods when they wanted and without constraints. Discussions are said to still be taking place and the plan will not come into action before 2015.

Amazon currently operates 16 lockers in London.
