Positive Impact of Fare-Free Public Transport in Luxembourg
Luxembourg, a small nation, introduced free public transport in 2020 to reduce congestion and improve daily commutes for workers crossing borders. This initiative, funded by public money, resulted in increased ease of travel, reduced stress, and encouraged spontaneous trips for citizens and tourists. With an annual budget of around 40 million euros, the scheme elevated Luxembourg globally as the first country to offer free transit, enhancing mobility and pride among residents.
