You can also arrive by bus from Luxembourg City. Please visit www.mobiliteit.lu to select your travelling options. Please note, however, that the train is the preferred option.
3. Arriving by car:
Duration: about 20 minutes from Luxembourg City or 30 minutes from Luxembourg Airport (without traffic jam).
If you travel by car, please take the highway A4 in direction Esch-sur-Alzette, and stay on that road until it ends at the roundabout called "Raemerich". Do not leave the A4 too early! Simply follow the A4 until it ends, then follow the signs to "Belval" at the large roundabout.
On the campus, unfortunately, there are no signs leading the way to the LCSB. Please use the following plan to orientate on the campus.
The House of Biomedicine (LCSB I) is directly next to the old blast furnace site, close to the red Dexia buildings. The building is a bit hidden. It is a six floor modern white building.
Biotech II (LCSB II) is right next to ADEM (Agence pour le développement de l'emploi / Employment Development Agency) and across the street from Southlane Towers.
