One pays for transport in both time and money.
Sometimes there are options of different transport methods trading off time Vs money.
Luxembourg has subsidized the money component to zero, but transport still has a significant time cost.

That said, it's a very small country and so the infrastructure cost are very contained. Also it's balance/budget is probably in the positive as well.
Have you visited any big european cities ? I live in berlin and to reach anything in a 5km radius (and I very rarely need to go further than 2) the fastest way to travel is bicycle, the next is public transportation, the last is car. Ranking these by cost gives you the same order.
Unless you’re implying they reduced the number of buses/trains to compensate, this is surely a very positive thing for the citizen.
