CFL is replacing trains with buses in successive phases on four major corridors. Services towards France and southern Luxembourg are affected first, followed by the northern line and the route to Trier from 24 August.
Luxembourg recorded 3,461 incidents on buses, trains and trams in 2025, a 5.8% increase. Unions want stronger protection for staff, while the government is advancing legislation on surveillance, order and penalties.
Luxembourg City packs UNESCO ramparts, deep river valleys and a glassy business plateau into a compact, walkable capital. It covers where to stay by neighbourhood: the central Ville Haute, the lively, affordable Gare, the scenic Grund, modern Kirchberg, and quiet Belair and Limpertsberg. With transport free nationwide, staying outside the centre is practical too.
Luxembourg is small enough that almost the whole country and several neighbouring cities sit within a day's reach of the capital. Public transport inside the Grand Duchy has been free for everyone since 2020, so trains and buses to Vianden, the Mullerthal, Echternach, the Moselle and Esch-Belval cost nothing. Cross-border favourites such as Trier, Metz, Saarbrucken and Bastogne are easy add-ons. This guide lists the best day trips and how to get there.
The ING Night Marathon Luxembourg takes place on 16 May 2026, turning Luxembourg City into a night-time running route and mobility puzzle.
On 1 March 2020, Luxembourg became the first country in the world to make all domestic public transport free. Six years on, here is what is covered, what it costs the state, and whether it has actually worked.
Since March 2025, Luxembourg's Tram Line 1 runs the full 16 km from Findel airport through the city. Ridership has more than quintupled in five years, yet around 70% of work commutes are still by car.
