Why are toilets getting pricier?
Councils are facing tough financial times, leading them to explore new ways to generate income. Dynamic pricing for public toilets, like the contactless machines in Sefton, is one idea. It means the price you pay could change depending on how busy it is, aiming to cover maintenance costs and potentially reduce queues during peak times.
