Opposition criticizes Antwerp toilet plan: "Extra toilets are needed, not arrows on apps"

Antwerp's toilet plan faces criticism for lacking new facilities despite efforts to improve visibility and cleanliness. Opposition members argue that more public toilets are needed, as many existing ones are not accessible 24/7. The plan includes better signage and a digital map, but critics label it as merely 'directional policy' without addressing the shortage of toilets. Current statistics show that most public toilets are located in city buildings, which often close after hours. The city official defends the plan, stating that investment must be balanced with financial sustainability and that public toilets should be placed where demand is highest.
