The infamous 'Turdis' toilet plonked in Biggin Hill has been removed just one month after it was erected.

Residents' fury was sparked on December 5 when the portable loo was suddenly dumped at the junction of Melody Road and Whitby Close in Biggin Hill.

Even disgruntled Bromley councillors spent 15 minutes discussing the messy saga at a full council meeting after another one appeared in Petts Wood.

Transport for London (TfL) was quick to apologise after admitting information letters were not sent out as planned.

It said the toilet was to allow bus drivers to use the bathroom during the working day.

However, this morning (January 3) workers came to remove the "eyesore", much to the delight of residents.

Stephanie Willis, 33, lives near to where the toilet was left, and she told News Shopper of her satisfaction about its removal.

She added: "Wahoo. The community spirit and fantastic journalism pays off."

Hundreds of objectors signed a petition against the toilet, which quickly became known as the Turdis.

Bromley councillor William Huntington-Thresher said: "We welcome the removal of the toilet which catapulted this quiet area of Biggin Hill into the national media for all the wrong reasons, which contrary to what may have been said, was not approved or agreed by the council. 

“Since this regrettable incident began, we have asked TfL to remove the toilets here and elsewhere in the borough and have sought our own legal advice about the status of the toilets on our highway land. 

“Whilst the installation of this toilet might support bus journey reliability on the R2, there will be other solutions. 

“Whilst TfL consider their own position, I would encourage them to consult with residents and their councillors about any of their future proposals, rather than simply looking to inform them of their intentions, which of course, didn’t happen on this occasion either.”

Nick Fairholme, director of project and programme delivery at TfL, said: “We try to be mindful of residents when we install these important facilities and know there are concerns about this particular site.

"We have removed this facility after hearing the local community’s views and we continue to work closely with the borough and local community to identify the most suitable solution.”
