The “pedestrian” Chemin des Libellules connects Chemin de Boissonnet to the Boissonnet Elementary School. The section of this path made of compacted earth and gravel beyond the rental buildings turns into a veritable mud pit when it rains.

3. Motivation:

Tell us: Why is it important for the City of Lausanne to consider your proposal? – Who will benefit from it? What advantages will they gain from your idea?

This route is heavily traveled by children on their way to middle school and by neighborhood residents walking to the bus stop for Route 41 or the Route de Berne.

Unfortunately, when it rains, the path becomes practically unusable: the potholes fill with water and mud.

However, this section is particularly important to ensure that children can get to middle school safely, even without being accompanied.

This stretch is also particularly attractive, as it is lined with community gardens and a field that sometimes hosts the sheep from Sauvabelin.

It also connects to a path leading down into the forest.
