New cycling path between Walferdange and Dommeldange: why not over the whole distance?

Between Walferdange and Dommeldange, a cycle path separate from road traffic will be built by next year. Unfortunately, it is only a kilometer long. Cyclists must continue on the road on the dangerous section of the "Kromm Längten". DP MP Guy Arendt asked the minister what the reasons are for this and whether it was not planned to secure the rest of the way to Walferdange as well.

« Wéi aus engem rezenten Zeitungsartikel ervirgeet, soll bis Ufank 2022 op engem Deelstéck vum PC15 tëscht Dummeldeng a Walfer ee vum Stroosseverkéier getrennte Vëloswee realiséiert ginn. Allerdéngs soll dee Vëloswee just op enger Längt vun engem Kilometer gebaut ginn, an zwar vun der Dummeldenger Gare bis bei de Beggener Park (rue Jean-Baptiste Nothomb). Duerno mussen d’Vëlosfuerer Richtung Walfer nees op déi vill befuere rue Henri Dunant eriwwer.

Besonnesch dëst Deelstéck duerch d‘Kromm Längten ass wéinst der laang gestreckter Kéier kuerz viru Walfer relativ geféierlech fir d’Vëlosfuerer. Reegelméisseg kënnt et hei zu riskanten Iwwerhuel-Manöver vun Automobilisten.

An deem Kader wollt ech dem Här Minister fir Mobilitéit an ëffentlech Aarbechte folgend Froe stellen:

  • Firwat hält de geplangte Vëloswee an der rue Jean-Baptiste Nothomb op ?
  • Ass virgesinn, de Rescht vun der Vëlospist PC15 tëschent Walfer an dem Beggener Park och méi sécher ze maachen ? Goufen sech schonns Gedanke gemaach iwwert en eventuellen Tracé (z.B. weider laanscht d’Gleisen oder e separate Vëloswee laanscht d’rue Henri Dunant) ? Wa jo, wat fir en Tracé wier fir de Minister déi beschte Léisung a fir wéini kéint dës realiséiert ginn ? »

How long are the waiting times at the “Travel Clinic”?

If you are travelling to tropical regions, you can get advice and be vaccinated against various diseases at the CHL’s “Travel Clinic”. However, the waiting times at this clinic are currently said to be quite long.
DP MPs Dr Gérard Schockmel and Gilles Baum have asked the Minister of Health how many patients have been seen at the “Travel Clinic” over the last ten years, how waiting times have developed over this period and whether it would not make sense to make it possible to book appointments online, as is the case with many other CHL services.

Medical referrals abroad

Since 1 June 2025, doctors have to fill out a new form if they want to send a patient abroad for treatment. The doctor must now indicate whether or not the services can be provided in Luxembourg within an ‘acceptable period’. If the doctor indicates that the services could actually be provided in Luxembourg, the referral request is automatically rejected.
DP MP Dr Gérard Schockmel has asked the Minister of Health whether the mere reduction to the ‘acceptable period’, without taking into account the quality of care, might not lead to unjustified rejections and whether the new form might not force doctors to provide false information in order to guarantee their patients the best possible care.
