RGTR reform: What is the ministry doing to make the bus lines 110 and 111 more attractive again?

The new bus lines 110 and 111, as modified by the RGTR reform, are for many people no longer interesting enough to leave their car. DP MP Carole Hartmann therefore asked the minister responsible for the plans to make these lines more attractive.

« Dans le cadre de la réforme du réseau RGTR, la modification de l’itinéraire des lignes de bus 110 et 111 liant Echternach à la ville de Luxembourg a résulté en une augmentation considérable des temps de trajet, ce qui à son tour a diminué l’attractivité des transports en commun dans la région de manière non-négligeable. En effet, selon un sondage de la commune de Berdorf, ces modifications amèneraient 78% des participants à prendre leur voiture au lieu des transports en commun.

Pourtant, d’après un article de presse, le ministère prévoirait seulement des adaptations mineures, se limitant au déplacement du terminus du Kirchberg au Glacis à Luxembourg-ville pour au plus tard mai 2022, citant le manque de réclamations de citoyens concernés comme preuve que la réforme des deux lignes de bus serait accueillie favorablement par ceux-ci.

Dans ce contexte j’aimerais poser les questions suivantes à Monsieur le Ministre de la Mobilité et des Travaux publics :

  • Combien de réclamations Monsieur le Ministre a-t-il reçu concernant la réforme des deux lignes de bus en question ?
  • Le cas échéant, quelles suites Monsieur le Ministre entend-il donner à ces réclamations ? Quelles autres pistes Monsieur le Ministre entend-il poursuivre afin de rendre plus attractif de nouveau les lignes 110 et 111 et d’éviter qu’une grande partie des usagers n’aient recours au transport individuel ?
  • Pour quelles raisons est-il exclu que l’itinéraire passe de nouveau par Dommeldange et Eisch ?
  • Quelle est l’évolution du nombre de passagers journaliers sur les deux lignes en question au fil des trois dernières années ? »

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.
