Temporary seafront toilets to close after half-term

The temporary toilets that have been on Bognor Regis promenade for the summer season will be removed after half-term.

People visiting the prom and beach during the autumn and winter will be signposted to use the toilets in the Regis Centre car park.

Feedback from visitors making use of the temporary facilities has shown that they were far more popular that the old underground toilets.

There is a hire cost for temporary toilets which is why they are being taken away for the quieter autumn/winter season.

Councillor Mrs Gillian Brown, Leader of Arun District Council and Cabinet Member for Economy, said: “It’s good to hear that the temporary toilets have been appreciated by our beach visitors this summer who welcomed the higher-quality facilities.

“Unlike the previous underground toilets which were out of the public eye, it is pleasing to note that the temporary toilets have not suffered any vandalism, anti-social behaviour or criminal damage whatsoever.”
