On Monday 1 December 2025, Luxembourg’s Ministry of Mobility and Public Works and the Public Transport Administration announced that from Monday 5 January 2026, school transport to secondary education establishments in the country’s Southern region will be integrated into the national RGTR network (General Road Transport System).
According to the ministry, the operational change to these services, previously managed by the TICE union (Intermunicipal Transport of the Esch-sur-Alzette canton), forms part of measures to optimise the entire public transport network in the south of the country.
In collaboration with the Ministry of National Education, Children and Youth, all schools will be informed before the end-of-year holidays about the changes taking effect from Monday 5 January 2026.
The ministry said that the multi-phase initiative, focused on multimodal mobility, aims to significantly strengthen the attractiveness and efficiency of the existing services to meet both current mobility needs and future developments. The goal is to encourage and facilitate the use of existing public transport (buses and trains) and forthcoming services (a rapid tram connecting the south to the centre of the country) in a sector undergoing transformation due to various factors (technological, economic, energy-related and social).
The ministry emphasised that the transition would occur with full continuity. They stated that timetables, routes and service quality will remain unchanged and added that students and their families can continue to rely on the same level of service as before. Only the numbering of the lines will change to align with the RGTR system.
Students, pupils and parents can access the new line numbers and real-time information on school journeys via a dedicated section on mobiliteit.lu or directly through the mobile application.
