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.

Experiences, opinions & suggestions (7)

  • Personal experience A participant from Marseille 2026-05-26

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

    Ask the retirement home and the primary school to co-design it.

    9 agree · 2 disagree · 12 unsure
  • Personal experience A resident (collected by Olivier R.) 2026-07-01 · With a facilitator

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

  • Personal experience A resident (collected by Olivier R.) 2026-07-02 · On paper

    I run the Saturday market stall opposite and see this every week.

  • Opinion Mathilde M. 2026-07-04

    I think the priority should be the people who use it most, not the people who pass through.

  • Opinion A resident (collected by Ousmane T.) 2026-07-24 · By phone

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

  • Personal experience Eva B. 2026-08-31

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

    Not enough responses yet (0)

    fewer than 8 responses

      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

      Response

      Illustrative response — shows how a response appears once received; not the position of a real authority.

      Services of the city of Marseille — example response interface Action requested 2026-08-20

      Illustrative response: before the proposal can be examined, the team is asked to complete the project form and name two contacts.

      The chain: public contribution → responsible organisation → review → response → action → implementation → outcome. A response is not a decision unless it is recorded as one by the organisation with authority.

      Implementation

      Implementation has not started. It follows a decision or recommendation and a responsible team.

      Outcome

      No outcome yet. When it is completed, the outcome is documented here: what was asked, answered, built and learnt.
