Procedure:

• Renewal of the wood of the chairs
• Removal of the chaining of the chairs for needs-based (e.g. sociopetal) positioning on the part of users
• Pilot phase
• Evaluation of the pilot phase and agreement on the perimeter of the permitted flexible movement of the chairs with the Irchel operations service.
