Getting around in Luxembourg

Every day, more and more people pile onto Luxembourg’s road network. This situation can make it hard to get around.

The government is focused on transport as a way to improve life in Luxembourg. This mainly involves encouraging the local population and cross-border workers to embrace green mobility. There are plenty of options to choose from, including walking, e-bikes, push bikes, scooters, cars and electrified public transport to name but a few.

To facilitate the transition to a cleaner transport system, the government is working hard to develop infrastructure for cyclists, roll out charging points for electric vehicles and improve public transport in terms of accessibility and timetables.

The main issue at stake in this regard is the environment. Right now, transport is the most polluting business sector. However, the government has committed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 55% across all sectors by 2030. Changing how we usually get around has become essential.

Our advice on embracing sustainable mobility

Given the points above, would you like to use your car less and think about how you get around in Luxembourg? We have plenty of ideas to help you make good choices.

First and foremost, your decision depends on your lifestyle. Naturally, country-dwellers and urbanites get around in different ways. It can be hard to limit how much you use your personal vehicle.

If the distances between your home and the places you often go allow it, an e-bike or push bike is the ideal option. As well as taking care of your health, you reduce your environmental impact.

In the first instance, depending on where you live, you could try out a bicycle-sharing system. If that wins you over, you can apply for a state subsidy at guichet.lu. That will make financing your e-bike or push bike easier on your wallet. All you have to do is fill out a form and send proof of purchase. You could receive 50% of the purchase price, up to a limit of €600. This measure (Clever Fueren) has proven so successful that it has been extended until 31 March 2024. We also offer interest-free loans for the purchase of a bicycle or scooter.

BGL BNP Paribas is here to help

Embracing green mobility also means using public transport. In Luxembourg, public transport has been free to use since March 2020. Bus, tram or train – the choice is yours. Furthermore, the government is thinking about how to optimise the network from an environmental perspective and to allow as many people as possible to use it.

Lastly, electric cars are a solution for people who travel long distances every day. BGL BNP Paribas can help you buy an electric car. You could benefit from a reduced-rate loan and support with financing and installing a charging point

Good to know

Some municipalities also offer subsidies you can apply for when you buy an e-bike or push bike. This assistance is in addition to the support on offer from the government. That makes financing your bike a lot easier. It should be noted that these subsidies may, in certain cases, relate to electric vehicles or installing charging points.
