Fares on trains, trams and buses will consequently be lifted
The announcement comes just hours after the swearing in of Prime Minister Xavier Bettel who will form a coalition government with two other parties.
The new government had also pledged to legalize cannabis, a matter that has sparked public debate.
Luxembourg is home to slightly over 500,000 people with an area of 2, 586 square kilometers.
