Will the underpass at the PN7 be realised as planned?

After more than 10 years, with the tracks being closed at the level of PN7 between Leudelange and Merl, the work for an underpass should start soon. Since this underpass will be closed to car traffic, the DP MPs Gusty Graas and Max Hahn wanted to know if the expenses were still justified.

« Il nous revient qu’après plus de dix ans de fermeture du passage à niveau PN7, les travaux relatifs à sa suppression devraient démarrer prochainement.

Dans ce cadre, il serait désormais prévu d’installer un bollard afin d’éviter une augmentation de la circulation routière dans le quartier résidentiel de Merl, en particulier aux heures de pointe.

De ce fait, le nombre d’usagers potentiels serait limité considérablement, à moins que le projet en question ne s’inscrive dans un concept plus large de promotion de la mobilité douce, créant des liaisons séparées du trafic motorisé vers les localités et pistes cyclables en proximité.

Au vu de ce qui précède, nous aimerions poser les questions suivantes à Monsieur le Ministre de la Mobilité et des Travaux publics :

  • Quel est le coût prévisionnel global de la suppression du PN7 ? Quel est le montant déjà engagé ?
  • De quelle manière la promotion de la mobilité douce est-elle prise en compte dans le cadre de ce projet ?
  • Est-il notamment prévu de créer une liaison sécurisée pour cyclistes et piétons entre la rue des Celtes et le quartier « Schléiwenhaff » ?
  • Dans la négative, et au vu du nombre d’usagers potentiels alors restreint, Monsieur le Ministre est-il d’avis que les dépenses liées au projet en question seraient justifiées ? »

Second classroom support staff and A-EBS in cycle 1 of primary education

To ensure more effective pedagogical differentiation from the start of schooling, the coalition agreement foresees the gradual introduction of a second classroom support worker in cycle 1. This second staff member could also play a key role in the rollout of Project Alpha, especially in preparing children for literacy in German or French. Furthermore, assistants for pupils with special educational needs (A-EBS) are set to ease the workload of specialised teachers. Our MPs Gilles Baum and Barbara Agostino have submitted a parliamentary question to the Minister to clarify the implementation timeline and progress of these initiatives.

DP MP Dr Gérard Schockmel has asked the Minister of Health why these results are not communicated and whether this is compatible with data protection regulations.
