On September 25 and 26, 2017, the Regional Civil Protection Organization (ORPC) of Valavran intervened on seven construction sites in the municipalities of Chambésy, Genthod and Versoix.
Campagne Lullin estate
The Lullin project consisted of clearing brush around one of the main trees in the park (a magnificent, protected century-old cedar). Plants were growing under the crown of the tree and threatening its roots. The barriers surrounding the tree were also dismantled and replaced. The area has been completely cleared of branches. Walkers will be able to fully enjoy the view of this imposing tree.
Saugy
The Saugy project consisted of felling a tree on the side of the Swiss road. This dead tree represented a danger for users of the Swiss Route where branches threatened to fall. Traffic was restricted during the work and a skip made it possible to dispose of branches and other debris which were crushed on site. Today we should know that a tree was present there, there being no visual trace allowing us to suspect it.
