Managing future cross-border daily mobility pressures in the Greater Region

By 2040, the cross-border functional region of Luxembourg will be faced with a defining challenge: how can it transport more people over greater distances without disrupting the flow of traffic? Disparities in living standards between Luxembourg and neighbouring regions are likely to continue widening, which is expected to increase cross-border commuting flows.
However, infrastructure, land use and governance remain fragmented across borders. Without careful planning, congestion could worsen and become systemic, affecting not only motorways, but also local roads, public transport and stations, as well as park-and-ride facilities. The MMUST model provides a unique, integrated perspective on this future.
By simulating mobility patterns between 2024 and 2040, it helps to identify areas of potential pressure, potential investment shortfalls and opportu- nities for coordinated action.
