But they already do! Well, in the City of Westminster at least - I
think these generally only make an appearance at weekends in the
evenings (or perhaps they also come out on weekday evenings - I
haven't been paying attention!):

There are also some more permanent installations that only open up in
the evenings. This design has a kind of flip-out door that is opened
up in the evenings:

One such facility, or rather convenience I should say, can be found on
Adelaide Street - that's the mostly pedestrianised street behind St
Martin-in-the-Fields and runs between Duncannon Street and William IV
Street just north of Charing Cross station.

This one meanwhile appears out of the ground!

I must say I haven't specifically noticed any of these. I think this
one is at Cambridge Circus, in front of the Palace Theatre. I *think*
the guy in front is actually raising it via remote control - there
appears to be something in his hand. Now if someone were to figure out
how the remote control system works, and even produce some such
devices for sale to the masses... ;-)
