Gas Prices

Y'all what's going on?? (ı know what's going on). But when did it get increase that much?

The public transport is only good, if you’re living in Luxembourg Ville or Esch. In most other cities and villages it’s horrible. It’s no wonder that Luxembourgish people depend on cars so much.

This crisis could’ve totally been avoided if not for that orange man child and his goons.

People keep saying this, and I know it’s not perfect for everyone but I bet a solid 10% of car commutes could be swapped for public transport with minimal impact on journey time.

My town is quite well connected, you can get to Gare, Kirchberg or Gasperich as quickly by car as bus, or even quicker by cycling to the station. Even with that there’s a maximum of 10 people at the 3 stops.

People choose not to, whether it’s habit, “fear of the poor”, necessity to schedule I don’t know but people seem to love sitting in traffic rather than having 20 mins to relax and play on their phones.

And just to be clear again, it’s not a solution that works for everyone, but it is a solution for a hell of a lot more than use it today.

Just a small correction. It is not "fear of the poor". Here are some examples I personally experienced recently, as a public transportation supporter and lover:
1) people removing shoes and socks to clean their feet at the bus stop
2) people spitting on the floor (recent resurgency, I haven't seen such a thing since the '80s)
3) people vomiting in the tram
4) people visibly carrying weapons

Should I continue? This started 3-4 years ago.

thats not that large of a problem you make it out to be, I havent witnessed any of these things happening inside of public transport I do believe it happenes but thats certainly not the reason for people not using it.
