Transit Sites

Tags:

The only transit site for travelers in the canton of Lucerne is at risk of being eliminated by early 2027, with no replacement solution in sight. So-called transitsites are reserved for non-Swiss travellers, mostly Roma.

Simon Röthlisberger, director of the foundation “Future for Swiss Travelers,” emphasizes the need to view traveling minorities as a natural part of Switzerland rather than a burden.

The foundation reports a bleak situation for travelers in Lucerne due to a lack of available sites and slow progress in finding new locations.
