- According to several Internet users, the Paris City Hall has signed a new market for street cleanliness which would reduce the cleaning of street furniture to a single annual visit.
- However, according to the deputy of the Paris City Hall in charge of the file, it would be more of an addition, than a reduction in the number of passages.
- Reports to the “Dans ma rue” application do not change and can always be made .
Is the Paris City Hall running into a wall? An unclean wall, would immediately add the opponents of Anne Hidalgo. Latest controversy, the new market cleaning would be a “serious mistake”, according to several people on Twitter. Since November 1, it “only provides for an annual tour in each street with regard to street furniture (signs, traffic lights, electrical cabinets, street signs, ;etc.)”, points out the Internet user who nevertheless notices “a notable improvement in the processing times for wild postings and graffiti” for several months.
But that was before. According to the Internet user, the new market would be a huge failure for cleanliness. streets and the problem would be related to to “budgetary savings” To better understand the ins and outs of this new contract described as a strategy of chaos, we went to: the meeting of Colombe Brossel, the assistant to; the mayor of Paris in charge of cleanliness of public space. We have also joined the user association “Dans ma rue”, which brings together the contributors of the eponymous application which allows Parisians to report anomalies on the road.
FAKE OFF
Yes, a new market. has been well past in 2022 and has been effective since mid-November. But the change is not as drastic as what the Internet user presents. There is no before and after call for tenders. Previously, users of the Parisian road could easily report anomalies in the public space, via the application “Dans ma rue”.
“A specific new tab in the category “graffiti” allows Parisians to report hateful inscriptions in the streets of the city so that they can be removed as quickly as possible. The application allows in a few clicks and a photo to inform the management services”, then explained the site of the City of Paris. With each report, a team was therefore (normally) dispatched to the site.

François Louis, director of the association of users of the application “Dans ma rue” has been well consulted upstream of the call for tenders which was to be renewed; after four years of seniority. “This renewal was necessary because the market needed to be improved. and secure it. Since 2018, there were many amendments that had been made. past and the market became a bit deformed,” said the director of the association. In all, five batches were attributed to three providers.

“A contribution to the market”
But then what is the problem with the new market? According to netizens, the cleaning was done. reduced to an annual visit, which would leave less and less time for the dedicated teams to deal with the incivilities encountered. But according to Colombe Brossel, it’s more of an addition that didn’t exist before. “”It doesn’t take anything away from the fact that we can ask for an additional intervention,” reassures the assistant. “But at least once a year there will be a cleaning. It”s an input into the market.” Internet users can therefore breathe: if they see graffiti on an electrical cabinet, for example, the incivility can still be reported.
Further improvements are to be made. note, both in substance and in form, assures the elected Colombe Brossel. With the new market, a new mechanism for territorializing actions is being put in place within the districts, which will now be responsible for managing the places of intervention in terms of cleanliness. “The needs are not necessarily the same depending on the borough. The goal is therefore to give them more resources,” the mayor of Paris.
More important places according to the arrondissements
Another novelty applauded by the user association “Dans ma rue”: the delay in processing reports that has been shortened from fourteen days to one week. “It is the borough mayors who determine which routes are important enough to be dealt with in a week,” said François Louis. Another novelty: the teams on site will have to send a before/after photo to the report made.
“Permanently dedicated teams”
For François Louis, there is certainly a budgetary reason, but it’s not necessarily linked to the budget. to poor case management. “The budget hasn’t shrunk, on the contrary it has exploded;” because the reports have been more and more.” According to the assistant to the City of Paris, the budget has passed; from 4 million euros to “less than 7 million”. “This obviously has an impact on the level of interventions”.
According to the director of the association, it’s more of a question operational. Providers will no longer have to deal with the report on a case-by-case basis, but can also deal with incivilities found around. “There could be a real cleaning up of the neighborhood, dealing with everything. time”, confirms Colombe Brossel.
So why only come once a year? “They won’t take a month and repaint all the furniture, “it’s going to be organized on a rotating basis. Teams will be permanently dedicated to repainting the furniture,” will also evolve over time.
