Les Roquetes is one of the five city neighbourhoods with the lowest amounts of gross organic waste collected (17.83 kg per resident) and its percentage of “unsuitables”, waste deposited in the wrong place (24.69%) is a little higher than the city’s average of 22.21%.
Initiatives planned for this neighbourhood include a programme of communal self-composting and displaying experiences of separating out the Organic Component of Municipal Waste (FORM).
The target is to increase the amount of organic waste collected and improve the quality by means of a 20% reduction on the 2015 level of “unsuitables” (from 25% to 20%).
