UPDATE: ANZ Bank has flagged plans to relocate its Ruthven St CBD branch after an online real estate listing sparked speculation of its move.
The company confirmed that it will be relocating its flagship branch to the thriving Walton Stores dining precinct later this year.
It has been located at its current site on 367 Ruthven St for 30 years.
An advertising listing online detailed how the building is being leased for "immediate occupation" by the agents in charge of the property, Burgess Rawson and Colliers International.
ANZ confirmed that the branch, and its staff, would be moving further down Ruthven St and not closing down.
"The new branch will be co-located with the business centre," an ANZ spokeswoman said.
"It will be a digital branch and also house our commercial, agri-business, small business, financial planners and other specialists."
The bank confirmed it plans to move into the new site in early August.
EARLIER: FOR the first time in three decades, the site currently occupied by ANZ Bank's major Toowoomba branch is looking for a new tenant.
An advertising listing online details how the building on 367 Ruthven St is being leased for "immediate occupation" by the agents in charge of the property, Burgess Rawson and Colliers International.
The listing suggests the flagship branch has been located in the heart of Toowoomba's business district for 30 years.
The agents who listed the site would not comment on the position of ANZ, but confirmed the owner of the building was looking for a new tenant.
The online listing says the building is open to tenants for the entire building or individual floors of the three-level property located opposite Heritage Bank's head office.
ANZ has been contacted for comment in relation to the future of the branch and its employees.
