+Merge segmented paths
+----------------------
+
+A path network is most optimized when there is only one path between intersections.
+If the path database includes many fragmented paths, they could be merged to improve performances.
+
+You can run ``sudo geotrek merge_segmented_paths``. **This command can take several hours to run.**
+
+During the process of the command, every topology on a path will be set on the path it is merged with.
