After a positive referendum last year, the communal authorities on both sides have decided to definitively launch the merger procedures.

An agreement with the state stipulates that on 1 September 2023, the two entities will form the new municipality of 'Grosbous-Wahl', with a first joint municipal council to be determined by voters at the municipal elections on 11 June 2023.

After the merger, the new municipality 'Grosbous-Wahl' will become the 4th largest municipality in the canton of Redange with 2,200 inhabitants spread over nine villages.
