小型國家盧森堡已經取消了所有公車、路面電車和火車的收費。

The tiny country of Luxembourg(盧森堡)has eliminated fares on buses, trams, and trains.

當地政府希望免費的運輸系統可以鼓勵更多人民停止開車。

The government hopes that free transportation will encourage more people to stop driving.

盧森堡為全歐洲道路上最多汽車的國家,該國的駕駛每星期花費超過 30 個小時於壅塞的路況中。

Luxembourg has more cars on its roads than anywhere else in Europe(歐洲). Drivers there spend over 30 hours a week in traffic jams.

盧森堡人口正快速增加,國家因此有必要加強路面交通。

The country needs to improve road transportation because the population is quickly expanding.

此外,來自其他國家的勞工為盧森堡帶來更多的交通問題,許多人從法國、德國和比利時等國經盧森堡通勤工作。

Additionally, workers from other countries bring extra traffic problems into the country. Many people from France(法國), Germany(德國), and Belgium(比利時)commute to Luxembourg for work.

因此,如今無論外來訪客或是當地居民皆無需再負擔大眾運輸的費用。

Therefore, neither visitors nor residents6 need to pay fares on public transportation now.

盧森堡的大眾運輸始終很便宜,由於政府補助了大部分的作業系統,國家並不會因此損失錢財。

Public transportation in Luxembourg was already cheap. The government has always funded most of the system, so it won't lose much money.

事實上,這項政策反而省去了一些開支,因為員工再也無需進行驗票工作。

In fact, it will save some money because employees no longer need to check tickets.
