Leudelange's residents have narrowly rejected the introduction of an average 30km/h speed limit on the village's main roads.

In Sunday's local referendum, 54.8 percent voted against the proposal, with 63.7 percent of eligible voters taking part in the vote.

The municipality had put forward a plan to introduce a 30 km/h zone on key routes to address growing traffic problems, congestion, and frustration among residents.

In some areas, such as Rue de la Gare near Schléiwenhaff, traffic counts recorded around 70,000 vehicles per direction in just one month. The proposal also included measures such as traffic islands, speed bumps, and narrower lanes to calm traffic and improve safety.

Following the result, the full plan will not be implemented and the default speed limit of 50 km/h will remain. However, one major project was confirmed: a shared space zone will be created in the village centre, with a maximum speed of 20 km/h and more space for cyclists. The affected area includes part of Rue de Reckange west of the junction with Rue de la Gare, Rue du Lavoir and Rue d'Eich. Work on the project is scheduled to begin in spring 2026.

The municipality also continues to pin its hopes on the upcoming tram extension, which is expected to ease traffic once completed.
