The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) has given green light to the next phase of implementation of Luxembourg's tram network, set to pass through the capital's old town as early as 2020.

A commitee looking into the project said ''there was no problem'' to extend the tram network in the direction of Luxembourg's Central Station, passing through the UNESCO buffer zone between Place de Bruxelles and Place de Paris in the capital.
