An estimated ten tonnes of pigeon poo has been removed from Melbourne's iconic Flinders Street Station dome. It took seven weeks to remove the pigeon droppings from the Elizabeth Street clock tower, which was treated as hazardous waste. The clean out is the first time in a century the train station has been cleaned and it comes as part of a $100million makeover expected to be completed in 2019. Project manager Graeme Kaye told 7 News that the pigeon poo went right to the ceiling saying it was 'a lot of poo'. Flinders Street is Melbourne's busiest station with 200,000 people passing through it every day.
