On Sunday, the new N3 in Luxembourg City, which is to be known as ‘Boulevard de Kyiv’, is set to be officially inaugurated.
The Luxembourg City section of the Left has now issued a statement to criticise the lack of trees on the boulevard connecting the capital’s Gare and Bonnevoie districts. Pedestrians in particular will be exposed to extreme heat in summer, with not a single plant in sight on the entire stretch. The small grass patches on the tram rails cannot be expected to provide any sort of relief, the statement notes.
In light of climate change and increasingly hot summers, the Left thus questions the planning of the municipality and the Bridges and Roads Authority. In conclusion, the party invites Minister for Mobility and Public Works François Bausch to take action as soon as possible.
