The District of Tofino is constructing a new public washroom near the Wickaninnish Community School sports fields to support growing community use in the Fourth Street and Gibson Street area.

Project Overview

The project includes a single-stall, fully accessible, gender-inclusive public washroom adjacent to the southernmost ball field at Wickaninnish Community School. The facility will also include a storage room for recreation equipment, a water fountain, and a water bottle fill station.

The new washroom will support:

  • Recreation and community use of the Wickaninnish Community School fields and nearby areas
  • Community events and recreational programming
  • Residents, students, visitors, and field users
  • Improved access to inclusive and accessible public facilities

Construction Impacts

Construction is expected to have minimal impacts on the surrounding area, and the Wickaninnish Community School sports fields will remain open for use. For public safety, the project site will be fully enclosed with construction fencing for the duration of the work. The District asks the public to follow any posted signage while work is underway.

Project Funding

The Fourth Street Public Washroom Project is fully funded through the District’s participation in the Province of British Columbia's Resort Municipality Initiative program.

At the April 14, 2026, Regular Council Meeting, Council awarded the construction contract to Mode Projects Ltd. for $266,112.71 plus applicable GST.
