Luxembourg to become first country to make all public transport free

  • by JW

We are not very well served by public transport in these parts:

Luxembourg to become first country to make all public transport free

Luxembourg is set to become the first country in the world to make all its public transport free.

Fares on trains, trams and buses will be lifted next summer under the plans of the re-elected coalition government led by Xavier Bettel, who was sworn in for a second term as prime minister on Wednesday.

Luxembourg City, the capital of the small Grand Duchy, suffers from some of the worst traffic congestion in the world.
