Fort William’s vandal hit Viewforth toilets reopened

Highland Council said contractors had been on-site since last week undertaking work.

A spokesperson said: “Viewforth toilets in Fort William have unfortunately faced persistent issues with vandalism, with the most recent incident leaving significant damage to the facilities.”

MacDonald said Fort William got more than a million tourist visits a year, with many of the visitors being older people.

He said one of the main stop offs for tour buses was Viewforth car park where the public toilets are located.

MacDonald said: “Those toilets have been out of use for over six months and the council have come up with every excuse why they have not been fixed and are open for purpose.

“If you were a hospitality business and your toilets failed for any reason you’d have them fixed within 24 hours.

“It is really not good enough and it is appalling for a tourist based economy. We really need the Highland Council to get a grip of this.”
