CFL Multimodal Logistics Hub
The CFL Multimodal Logistics Hub in Bettembourg-Dudelange is one of Europe's most modern and efficient rail-road terminals. Situated on the strategically vital North-South axis, the terminal serves as a central hub for combined transport between the North Sea, the Mediterranean, and the Atlantic. The facility has undergone massive expansion in recent years and features state-of-the-art gantry cranes and an automated gate system. A standout feature is the Lorry-Rail platform, which enables the loading of entire semi-trailers onto trains, significantly reducing truck traffic on motorways. The hub also provides extensive storage capacities and specialized logistics services for various industrial goods. Its geographical proximity to major European markets and direct connection to the CFL rail network make the site indispensable for international logistics corporations. The hub is a key pillar of Luxembourg's strategy to establish itself as a leading logistics gateway in Central Europe while simultaneously improving the ecological footprint of freight transport.
