The construction of the new toilets is running smoothly with completed work including the demolition of the old building, construction of the new slab, erection of steel and timber frames and installation of the roof and services. The new building will provide a Changing Places toilet, unisex accessible toilet, male and female ambulant toilets and a parents’ room.
Greater Shepparton City Council’s Acting Manager Neighbourhoods Jason Watts said the project was tracking well and the outcome would be of huge benefit to the community and visitors alike.
“The new building will provide a modern and comfortable facility, compliant to current accessibility standards.
“The shape of the modern design is now evident, and over the next two months all the internal fit out and external finishes will complete what is to be a premier public toilet in Shepparton’s CBD.
“Council recognises the inconvenience caused by this project, however the community will benefit greatly from this upgrade,” said Mr Watts.
The Fraser Street Toilet redevelopment is supported by the Victorian Government.
Temporary toilets are provided in Fraser Street and the Stewart Street carpark during the construction period. An alternative accessible toilet, baby change facility and male and female toilets are located in the Harris Scarfe Shopping Complex.
