Hundreds of people have signed a petition calling for more public toilets to be installed across Dublin.
Last June two temporary public toilets were installed in the city due to a lack of facilities available.
They were installed at the top of Grafton Street and at Wolfe Tone Square.
This brings the total number of public toilets within the entire city council area to four, with another one in Clontarf and a final one other in Sandymount.
However, with people now being encouraged to spend more time outdoors there are calls for extra facilities to be provided.
Orla Delargy has started a petition on the matter which has over 500 signatures, she says they are badly needed.
"We're going to see overcrowding, public urination and worse," she said.

Orla says the council need to facilitate the public enjoying themselves while lockdown continues.
In the wake of the petition The Lord Mayor Hazel Chu says the issue of more public toilets is definitely on the agenda.
She says she'll be speaking to the councils Chief Executive later.
The City Council says the two temporary toilets will continue to operate for the foreseeable future and that it is also considering other options.
