Necessary and coordinated work
Work on rue de Carouge, carried out in the basement, is necessary to refurbish the infrastructure.
THE pipes (“sewers”) are in poor condition. They will be rebuilt by separating the wastewater from rainwater by the city of Geneva.
THE water, gas and electricity pipes are dilapidated and will be renovated by GIS.
THE tram rails are to be replaced and will be presented to standards by TPG.
The three contracting authorities (City of Geneva, GIS and TPG) work in a concerted and coordinated manner to pool costs and optimize the duration of the site.
