What this is: Community idea

Written by residents. It carries no official status.

Who decides: Nobody has decided anything yet. A community idea can become a recommendation through a group or assembly; only the organisation with authority can make an authorised decision, and it must record it here.

    As a delivery rider I use this route daily — the problem is worst between 7 and 9.

  • Personal experience A participant from Nantes 2026-06-30 · By phone

    As a delivery rider I use this route daily — the problem is worst between 7 and 9.

  • Opinion Charlotte W. 2026-07-06

    I would rather see a small trial first than a big plan that takes five years.

  • Suggestion Brigitte P. 2026-08-15

    I walk here every morning with my mother; there is nowhere to sit for 800 metres.

  • Opinion A resident (collected by Lucie M.) 2026-09-13 · At a meeting

    This seems worth doing, but only if local residents are involved in maintaining it.

    How this is calculated. Only statements (arguments, concerns, alternatives, suggestions, common ground) can be weighed, once per person, as agree, disagree or unsure. Shares are of the people who responded to that statement — not of residents, and not of everyone on the platform. Popularity is not truth: a statement with broad agreement can still be wrong, and a minority concern can be decisive. Nothing here is a vote or a decision. Full methodology
