Portobello Public Toilets Closure Threat Consultation (Closed)
As part of the City Council's Budget Review, it is being proposed that a number of public toilets outside the main city centre area should be closed.
In Portobello, the cuts could see the closure of three toilets:
· On the Prom at the bottom of Pipe Lane (60 Pipe Lane) – closure recommended
· At the corner of Portobello High St and Bath St (4/1 Bath St) – closure uncertain
· East end of Portobello Prom at Joppa Rd (82 Joppa Rd) – closure recommended
The future of the Automated Public Toilet (APT) on the Prom at Straiton Place Park is also uncertain due to a contractual change, although the council is understood to be looking at their options " including the procurement of an additional company to provide and manage APT’s".
