Lead was stripped from the roof of the East Park public conveniences in Brigg last September, allowing rain to pour in and forcing North Lincolnshire Council to close the facility on health and safety grounds, with Out of Order signs being displayed on the building,
Repairs were sanctioned and carried out at various times over several months, including providing a new roof, interior electrical work and repainting.
Now, with all the refurbishment completed, the WCs are back in business.
Coun Carl Sherwood announced at Brigg Town Council's latest meeting, held earlier this week in the Angel, that the toilets would reopen from Thursday, February 27. He's a member of the cabinet at the North Lincolnshire authority.
The other set of public WCs in Brigg, on Cary Lane, has remained open while those near the Tintab shelter and the Monument have been out of action.
The East Park toilets, being beside the busy A18, are used by motorists passing through the town, as well as local people.
