A total of 57,800 cubed metres of concrete and 3,810 tonnes of steel have been used to build the first section of Luxembourg's tramline, stretching from Kirchberg to Place de l'Etoile.

François Bausch, Minister of Sustainable Development and Infrastructure, confirmed the figures when responding to a parliamentary question from the Alternative Democratic Reform Party (ADR) minister, Gast Gibéryen, about the amount of carbon emissions generated by the project.
