Traffic information

What is the current traffic situation?

For vehicular traffic:

Traffic will return to normal on these streets by the end of February, except for Rue Henri Vanérus. The affected sections will be closed off to traffic as the project progresses. At all times, a 3.5-metre passage will remain open to cars. Vehicular access to private property will be maintained as long as physically possible. Pedestrian access and access for emergency services will be guaranteed throughout the duration of the works.

For businesses and deliveries:

The City of Luxembourg will try to ensure access for deliveries to local businesses throughout the duration of the works.

For public transport users:

Buses are once again calling at the stop on Rue Pierre Krier. This will remain the case until works begin on the pavement.
