"The tramway has reached a key stage in its expansion, making public transport even more attractive. The introduction of the tram to the airport represents a major step forward, facilitating access and offering an efficient and sustainable mobility alternative. At the same time, a number of studies are under way, notably for the development of a high-speed tram to the south of the country, but also to improve the network in the City of Luxembourg", commented the minister for mobility and public works, (DP). "My priority remains to invest at a high level in public transport infrastructure in order to provide an increasingly high-quality and attractive service for our citizens."
This Sunday, in her company, the mayor of the City of Luxembourg, , the alderman in charge of mobility, , representatives of the municipality of Niederanven as well as the director of Luxtram, , and their guests, inaugurated the new tramway section linking "Luxexpo" to "Findel-Luxembourg Airport". This brings the total number of stations to 24, including 10 multimodal interchanges.
The 3.9-kilometre extension includes a 110-metre structure spanning the A1 motorway. Prefabricated in Belgium, the steel deck was assembled in two half-works, on either side of the A1 motorway, which were connected during a "ripping" operation in spring 2023. Its recyclable aluminium structure guarantees strength, durability and integration into the landscape.
