Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) Compliance

Many of the Council Public Toilets have been upgraded to be fully accessible and this is noted in the list of toilets in the links on the left of this page. We are looking to ensure that in due course all locations will have the disabled unit upgraded to be fully accessible, as well as having 'ambulant' cubicles installed (which means compliant door fittings, grab rails and sensor flushes, in one of the cubicles in each Ladies and Gents sections). Any works to be carried out will be notified in advance on this webpage and by notices at the toilet location.

The future for publicly accessible toilets

A 'Provision Strategy for Public Toilets' was adopted at the Cabinet meeting (item 118) in December 2011. See under 'Related Documents' for a copy of the Strategy document.

A draft version had been considered by the Planning, Transport & Environment PDS panel on Tuesday 13^th September. Follow this link to see the PDS papers.

This has led on from a Public Consultation carried out between November 2009 and February 2010 seeking views on where and how many toilets are required for residents and visitors, along with who should provide and management them and what they should be like. The consultation results and the recommendations from the Safer & Stronger Communities Overview & Scrutiny Panel can be seen here:
