He added: “We are 100% committed to public safety and hygiene. To avoid the queues and to ensure there is sufficient toilet provision, portable loos have been installed in Bamburgh and Seahouses. The portable loos are being cleaned on a regular basis.”
However, the move has also led to concerns about the removal of parking spaces.
