Mandate accessible public toilets in railway stations and near bus stops
Background
We call on the Government to make it a legal requirement for all railway stations and bus stops to provide accessible public toilets. No one, especially diabetics, elderly people, or disabled individuals, should be forced to hold it in due to a lack of nearby facilities.
Additional details
Access to a toilet shouldn't depend on luck, timing, or how far you're willing to walk. For people with diabetes, IBS, pregnancy, disabilities, or age-related conditions, holding it in isn't just uncomfortable; it's painful and even a health risk. Yet many stations and bus stops have zero public toilets. We ask for toilets as standard transport infrastructure, not an afterthought. Everyone deserves dignity, not desperation, on their journey.
