Description
On the corner of E Main & 24th there has been a protapotty for 2 yrs. It continues to stay on the side walk far from the GRTC bus stop. It remains locked and needs to be removed. If GRTC wants to provide drivers bathroom access so should other organizations leave portapotties on the sidewalk If so it can move it to a more appropriate place. This causes a walking traffic obstruction during busy times of day. Not to mention unsightly. Please have it moved.

Comments
- Staff · May 31, 2022We have discussed this location with GRTC and there is still a need for the porta-potty at this location; GRTC representatives surveyed alternative locations in this area, however, the grade and the lighting are an obstacle; GRTC facility to remain at this location until they are able to determine alternatives, or stores allow bus operators to use their facilities; all the porta potties remain locked, as this is a safety and security measure for access only to operators.
