This year's winner announced
|
The idea was if the images were published on the internet and then voted on* then maybe the people responsible for the condition of the toilets might take a bit more care and maybe, just maybe, the standards would rise. This
in fact precisely what did happen. If you check out
the images of the toilets from four years ago and compare
them to the images now you can see a great leap in the right
direction with many being completely rebuilt and disabled
access becoming the norm. It was mainly the toilets in Barga
Vecchia who showed the way with the 1999 and 2000 Osteria
Angelio and Capretz
followed by the surprise win in 2001 of the Xray dept. at
the Hospital but
this year the prize has moved down the hill to the Barga Giardino
area: |
The
long running "Vote for the Best Toilet in Barga"
competition is back again after a three year break. Following
a letter to the visitors book in March 2000, from a French
tourist visiting Barga for the first time and complaining
about the condition of the public toilets, barganews decided
to do a survey of all the toilets available to the growing
number of tourists arriving in Barga.
