Note that in trains, first class requires the purchase of a ticket, and that municipal buses may be charged if mayors choose not to follow this measure.
Tram. The tram project called Luxtram is still in progress but well advanced: some sections are already used. In the end, the network should comprise 16 km of line, 24 stations and 32 trains. It will link Luxexpo (Kirchberg) to the central station of Luxembourg City via the Grande-Duchesse Charlotte bridge (Pont Rouge). An extension to the airport is also envisaged
