NEW TOILETS PLANNED FOR YATE SHOPPING CENTRE
Yate Shopping Centre has submitted a planning application to South Gloucestershire Council to build new public conveniences in West Walk.
They will replace the existing facilities in East Walk which are due to be demolished to make way for the new Marks & Spencer Simply Food store, construction of which will begin in the Spring.
The new public conveniences will be sited immediately outside the West Gate Centre, Yate's new health centre in West Walk. (the same location as the toilets that were knocked down during the development of the West Gate Centre)
Andrew Lowrey, Yate Shopping Centre Manager, commenting on the application said: "There has been extensive dialogue over recent months about suitably sited replacement facilities. There are already toilets in the Tesco Extra store in East Walk which are available to the public. These new toilets will ensure facilities are available at both ends of the Shopping Centre.
"We will be reviewing our signage within the Shopping Centre as part of the process and will make sure that there is adequate signage throughout the centre to direct shoppers to the nearest toilets".
