Public toilets needed urgently

https://nowaraga.com/2026/09/27/public-toilets-needed-urgently/

Do you think that people are more likely to wash their hands after using a public toilet they had to pay for?

I imagine people would like to get their money's worth.

I got into the toilet without paying the 20p because I sneaked in behind a man in front of me.

You have time before the gates close, otherwise the doors close on you, a net comes down and red lights star flashing with an alarm. Then an automated voice calls out "Warning! Someone is trying to use the toilet without paying their 20p!"

Public toilets with two single-occupant stalls. For some reason one was labelled women and the other men, and the women were queueing while the "men's" stall was free.

Swansea schools set for £2.1m maintenance boost

The council’s cabinet has approved the major programme of works and it means around £2.1m is being directed to more than 17 schools for work to replace or repair roofs, electrical upgrades and other improvements.

Schools set to see improvements include Pontarddulais Comprehensive, Blaen-y-Maes Primary, Gors Primary, Waun Wen Primary, Cwmglas Primary and Grange Primary amongst others.

Another £40,000 has also been earmarked for the council’s toilet strategy on top of £50,000 last year to maintain and upgrade the council’s network of public toilets.

There is also money to maintain Swansea’s war memorials, which the council has pledged to maintain on behalf of veterans.

On top of the council’s commitment, more funding is due from the Welsh Government later in the year to help keep council schools and buildings in good shape.

Rob Stewart, Leader of the Council, said: “We are once again investing significant sums on essential maintenance improvements for our schools and public buildings.

“Our capital maintenance budget spending demonstrates how the council’s priorities match those of the people of Swansea and, at the same time, help make inroads into the backlog of maintenance improvements our schools and public buildings need.”

He added: “The programme takes into account the council’s commitment to reducing its carbon footprint and cutting energy costs.”

Cabinet Member for Education and Learning, Robert Smith, said: “As a council we recognise just how important education is not just to pupils, parents and staff but also to our city’s future economic well-being.

“The maintenance and repairs programme is in addition to the record £150m investment in new and improved school facilities in Swansea under the Sustainable Communities for Learning Programme.”

When greeted by someone using a walking frame or a stick, I felt like an imposter. They’d look me up and down and conclude in their head that I’m not disabled, that I had stolen this space from them for no reason. My state of impairment was invisible to them. How inconvenient.

Public toilets are more than mere fixtures of hygiene—they’re canvases for a uniquely democratic form of art: cubicle-door poetry. Here is a beauty I found:

"Even if you win the rat race, you’re still a rat."

#Poetry #publicToilets

This right here, y'all.

If it's right and good and normal and expected for any public restroom to be stocked with toilet paper, soap, and paper towels (and sometimes condoms),
then it is also right and good and should be normal and expected for every public restroom to be stocked with pads and tampons.

There’s a Portland Loo, installed Feb 2015, at Monterey’s downtown transit center for Monterey-Salinas Transit bus system (that’s at Simoneau Plaza, the triangular plaza at the top of Alvarado Street, which is the city of Monterey’s “main street”). https://bikemonterey.org/where-is-in-the-city-of-monterey.html

As noted in the Tips for Bicycling Monterey County’s “Where to Shower and Change" https://bikemonterey.org/tips-for-tourists/bicycling-but-we-have-plans-tonight, while there’s no shower in it, there is room to change your clothes in the loo.
Please be a “quick change artist,” so others can have their turn to use the loo promptly!

There’s a Portland Loo in Salinas, the Monterey County seat, installed in 2019 as part of MST’s downtown Salinas transit center renovations https://mst.org/news_items/salinas-transit-center-ribbon-cutting/ https://mst.org/wp-content/media/07_Portland-Loo_PC1.pdf

Pedestrianspace is doing a survey on public toilets in metro/subway stations. They are looking for contacts in metro systems globally to answer a few questions on provision of #publictoilets in systems. Any tips also much appreciated. Email [email protected]

Basic sanitary provision should be improved and accessible … please.

Mundane thought of the day: Are there any public toilets (that actually charge money grrr) that have a cashless interface? Seems daft to still have cash access only to these things these days. Bloody Queen Street Station in Glasgow is 50p (50p for a pee).
