Pop-Up Toilets to Cut Street Urination
Tue Mar 26, 7:36 AM ET

LONDON (Reuters) - Pop-up toilets that rise from the ground at night
will be installed in central London in a bid to dissuade late-night male
revelers from urinating against walls and doorways.

The self-cleaning telescopic urinals, which Westminister City Council
hopes to have in place by autumn, will emerge from under the ground and
be retracted in the day via remote control.

"By moving them underground it means they are not an obstacle in the
day," a council spokeswoman said Monday.

The council has already deployed mobile urinals which have been placed
on the streets Friday and Saturday nights to cut down street urination.
The telescopic toilet is currently only available in Europe, Westminster
council said.

Cheerio, please stop urinating on the streets.
