Traffic information

What is the current traffic situation?

For vehicular traffic:

The roadworks will be carried out in sections. These four sections will be closed to traffic one at a time, based on how the works progress.

Pedestrian access and access for emergency services will be guaranteed throughout the duration of the works. Vehicular access to private property will be maintained as long as physically possible. Certain parking spots will be removed as the works progress.

The City of Luxembourg will try to ensure access for deliveries to local businesses throughout the duration of the works. As construction progresses, there will be changes to traffic flow in this area.

For public transport users:

No changes.
