Public Toilet Strategy
We are working on a new Public Toilet Strategy that will guide the future planning, development and management of public toilets in the Tweed for the next 10 years.
The strategy will help us to make sure we're providing public toilets that are well-maintained, safe, conveniently located and accessible for everyone.
Council manages 62 public toilets across the Tweed.
In 2021 we asked for community feedback about public toilets, and our online survey was completed by 244 people.
We also asked you to show us where toilets should be built, upgraded or removed. A total of 122 pins were dropped on our interactive map with suggestions.
Summary Report
You can read about the community feedback we received in our report:
Picnic hamper winners
Everyone who responded to our survey was entered in the draw to win one of 10 picnic hampers from Brett Street Café.
Winners were notified and have received their hampers.
Open Space Strategy
Responses from our earlier Open Space Strategy (2019–2029) community surveys also helped us understand community needs for public toilets.

Drop a pin where you would like to see public toilets built, upgraded, removed or perhaps you have other ideas for improvement.
Existing public toilets are marked in yellow.
Here's how to drop pins on the map:

- Click the + icon at the top left of your screen to add a pin.
- Click and drag the relevant pin to the location you would like to highlight. Existing public toilets are marked in yellow.
