We’re excited to share plans for a much-needed upgrade to the public toilet block at Fishermans Beach South in Mornington. The existing facilities have served the community well for many years but are in need of replacement. The new design reflects a modern approach to public amenities that provides a welcoming, inclusive, and functional space for everyone.  
 
The new design will feature: 

  • Four all-gender, individual cubicles, increasing safety, offering privacy, and convenience for all users. 
  • Two outdoor showers, perfect for rinsing off sand and saltwater after a beach visit. 
  • Improved accessibility, upgraded pathways and a designated accessible car park spot to ensure the area is welcoming for all 
  • Improved lighting 
  • New native landscaping 

 
We want to ensure the project meets our community’s needs. If you have comments on the new design, we’d love to hear from you. Please note that due to existing site conditions, there is limited capacity to make significant changes to the concept design.   
 
View the plans in person and have a chat with us on Tuesday 18 February (2pm-4pm) at our Shire office in Mornington, Queen Street. 
 
Plans are available to comment on from 3 February – 14 March. View the plans at any of our Customer Support Centres or on our website at: mornpen.vic.gov.au/fishermansbeachtoilets
