The City of Bressuire has launched a public awareness campaign titled "Would You Do That at Home?" to encourage citizens to adopt respectful behaviors in public spaces, particularly concerning dog waste, litter, and scooter use.

The campaign aims to remind residents of simple daily actions that contribute to the collective well-being, addressing several key themes to improve the living environment.
Regarding dog waste, owners are urged to systematically pick up after their pets. This simple act helps maintain the cleanliness of sidewalks and green spaces, ensures pedestrian comfort, and guarantees a pleasant living environment for all residents. Bags are available in many public areas.
On the topic of household waste, the campaign emphasizes that streets are not trash cans. Discarding or abandoning waste harms the living environment, the ecosystem, and incurs significant costs for the community. Residents are advised to use available bins, respect collection schedules, take bulky items to recycling centers, and never leave bags at the base of containers. The city's cleanliness is presented as everyone's responsibility.
Concerning scooters, the street is not a racetrack. For everyone's safety, users are asked to adapt their speed to traffic conditions, be particularly vigilant around pedestrians, respect traffic laws, and avoid dangerous or acrobatic behavior in public areas. The goal is to ensure shared spaces allow everyone to travel serenely.
Through this initiative, the City of Bressuire highlights that respect for public space relies on simple daily gestures. Each individual's behavior contributes to making Bressuire a clean, safe, and pleasant city to live in, based on the principle that what is unacceptable at home should not be tolerated in shared spaces.
