The City of Luxembourg’s Municipal Office is using Bluetooth beacons to send push notifications through its free smartphone app, cityapp – VDL, alerting users when their bus is about to depart.
The app, available in English, French and German, has several features across different tabs. The “Explore” tab highlights nearby attractions and upcoming events tailored to your preferences, such as parks, playgrounds, museums and sports facilities. The “Transport” tab offers comprehensive travel information, including real-time bus and tram departures, car park availability, cycling infrastructure, taxi ranks and service disruptions. The “Services” tab gives quick access to practical information, such as city department contacts, public toilets, water fountains, the latest city news, your waste collection schedule and forms for reporting issues or making suggestions.
