NYC's new 10-minute public bathrooms: 'Not a place to scroll'

Seventeen new public restrooms are set to debut throughout New York City, enhancing accessibility across all five boroughs. These high-tech facilities will have a strict ten-minute usage limit to accommodate more users. Access can be facilitated through QR codes, text, or a specialized app. Each restroom boasts touchless features, ADA compliance, climate control, and baby-changing facilities. This initiative represents a year-long pilot program focused on public health improvements.
