A PUBLIC toilet re-vamped at a cost of £150,000 is still to open.
And it may not be up-and-running when Royston's Christmas Carnival is held in two weeks' time.
A spokesman for North Herts District Council told The Crow yesterday (Wednesday) that electrical work still needed to be completed on the building.
"We are talking a matter of weeks rather than days for the work to be done," he said.

Cllr Fiona Hill, chairman of the district council's Royston area committee, said: "Hopefully everything will be resolved shortly.
