The through station at LUGA 2024
Vom 26. April bis 5. Mai 2024 öffnet die Zentralschweizer Frühlingsmesse Luga ihre Tore und präsentiert eine faszinierende Sonderschau zum Durchgangsbahnhof Luzern. Ein Jahrhundertprojekt, das nicht nur die Region Luzern, sondern die gesamte Zentralschweiz nachhaltig prägen wird.
The Lucerne through station is the focus of this year’s Luga, the Central Switzerland Spring Fair, which takes place from 26 April to 5 May 2024. The project of the century will be brought to life in three dimensions over an area of around 800 square metres. Visitors will have the unique opportunity to learn about the project in an interactive and playful way and experience its enormous benefits for the entire region.
Government President Fabian Peter emphasises the importance of the special exhibition: “By presenting the Lucerne through station at Luga, we are giving the people of Central Switzerland the opportunity to experience the project up close and understand the added value it will bring to our region.”
The special exhibition will not only take place in Hall 1, but can also be experienced on the exhibition forecourt. There, the focus will be on public transport, with various activities under the motto “experience, try out and join in”. Lucerne’s through station is more than just a railway station; it is a crucial building block for a denser public transport network throughout Central Switzerland.
Over 100,000 people board, alight or change trains at Lucerne station every day. However, the capacity limit has been reached and additional connections are no longer possible. The Lucerne through station paves the way for the further development of sustainable mobility and enables a forward-looking design of the public transport network.
The special exhibition on the Lucerne through station is a joint initiative of the Canton of Lucerne and the Lucerne Transport Association (VVL), supported by the City of Lucerne, the Central Switzerland Public Transport Conference and other partners.
