Leyden Street Toilets Refurbishment
The Council have also invested capital into revitalising the former Leyden Street Toilets, by re-providing a new public accessible toilet, but also creating a new space for a commercial tenant that will provide a food and drink offer.
The improvements will also include the installation of new trees and planters to the area, additional seating and much needed improvements to the street itself.
The street will become inaccessible to vehicles and will create a safer through route for pedestrians and wheelchair users.
Work began on site on the 5th May 2022, however the contractor pulled out in May 2023. Since then, the public realm works have proceeded (new paving slabs, trees). A new contractor will soon be appointed with a new estimated completion date of June 2025.
