Toilets with an Ambulant Cubicle in Queensland

Queensland records 421 of Australia's 2,143 public toilets with an ambulant cubicle — 20% of the national total. That makes it the third-largest state total, behind New South Wales (686) and Victoria (521). They sit in 298 named towns.

Birtinya (6), South Brisbane (6) and Buddina (5) carry the most between them. Those 3 account for 17 of the 421; a further 216 towns record exactly one.

Named listings include Flintwood Crescent Park, Alexandra Park West, Fraser Venture Ferry Landing and Dowsett Park. Around Birtinya the listings run to Birtinya Island, Anchorage Park and Prime Parade Park.

Most sit in parks and reserves (233), with 33 shopping centres, 24 service stations and 15 sporting grounds. Across the set the listings cover 17 of the 17 kinds of site the map names. A further 52 are filed under the map's catch-all "Other" category. They are 9% of the 4,551 public toilets recorded in Queensland, and 8% of the round-the-clock ones.

388 of the 421 are recorded as wheelchair accessible — including Lion Park Toilets and Mooloolaba Foreshore Park. 11 are Changing Places facilities, with an adult-sized change table and a hoist — among them Brisbane Airport Domestic Terminal and Peppertree Park. 10 open with an MLAK key, the national Master Locksmiths Access Key — among them Brisbane Entertainment Centre and Strand Changing Places. 3 need a key from the operator instead, which means finding whoever holds it before you arrive. 220 of the 421 have a baby-change table, and 213 of those sit at a site that is also wheelchair accessible.

194 of the 421 are published as open 24 hours — such as Rodd's Bay South Rest Area and Ernest Peak Park. 107 open in daylight hours only, 10 list variable hours and 4 follow the host venue's hours. Where set times are published, the earliest opening is 3am at Puma Racecourse and the latest closing is 11pm at BP Express Aspley. 129 publish no weekly hours at all, so treat those as unknown rather than open.

4 of the 421 charge for entry; the rest are free — the charging ones being Pebble Creek Parklands and Boyne Valley Discovery Centre. An ambulant cubicle is the narrower cubicle with grab rails on both sides for people who walk with support — a frame, crutches, arthritis — and it sits inside the ordinary men’s and women’s toilets rather than being the wheelchair-accessible room. The map records that one exists; it does not grade it against AS 1428.1. Every figure here is counted from the National Public Toilet Map, which operators and councils update at their own pace.
