The Santander Bank branch in Uphams Corner is set to close on July 20 and customers will be sent to the Fields Corner branch. The closure is part of the bank's consolidation plan.

Santander announced last week that it planned to consolidate brick-and-mortar branches throughout the region, including branches in Boston. The company told the Reporter that the 585 Columbia Rd. branch is within the scope of that consolidation plan.

Santander customers are asked to use the branch at 1442 Dorchester Ave. in Fields Corner instead.

“Like many industries, our customers’ preferences have changed, with more customers choosing to bank with us online,” read a statement from the company to the Reporter. “Therefore, we are reimagining the customer and employee experience by simplifying our processes, refining our branch footprint, and increasing our investment in digital capabilities to align with the evolving needs of our customers.”

Santander also has branches on Gallivan Boulevard in Neponset and in Mattapan Square. Those branches were not mentioned for being in the scope of the consolidation plan.

The company also has offices at 2 Morrissey Boulevard, a building steps from JFK/UMass MBTA Station.
