A SUM of £60,000 is being splashed out on a Bridgwater toilet block, which has been repeatedly vandalised.

Sedgemoor District Council is continuing a programme of refurbishment of public conveniences, and the latest loos under its control to be made over are the ones on Penel Orlieu.

The works started on August 20 and will be completed by the end of October, in time for Carnival.

Changes will include two new Disability Discrimination Act compliant unisex super loos, a refurbished roof, upgraded insulation and lighting, new doors, drains and internal fittings.
