PHONE BOXES…Manchester City Council plans to spruce up its four traditional red K6 phone boxes, and convert them from public toilets to landmarks of which Mancs can be proud. The project will see the kiosks, which the council will acquire from BT for £1, cleaned up and restored before being locked up to prevent future damage. BT has offered the phone boxes to the owners of the land they occupy in a bid to slash its annual repair bill as part of its ‘adopt a kiosk’ initiative. “Most of the boxes have become a burden for BT, which has to repair smashed panes of glass and clean up the mess when members of the public use the payphones as a public convenience,” said a proposal document lodged with the council.
