At checkpoints in the Lviv region, border guards of the 7th Carpathian Border Guard Detachment record a 40% increase in passenger traffic.
Border guards record a higher number of border crossings on weekends. For example, last weekend, on Saturday and Sunday, about 120,000 people crossed the checkpoints within the Lviv region to enter and leave. On average, on weekdays, about 50 thousand people cross the checkpoints for entry and exit combined.
This is due to the tourist and vacation seasons.
Most often, travelers choose the Krakivets, Shehyni, and Rava-Ruska checkpoints to cross the border. In this regard, there is a periodic accumulation of traffic in front of these checkpoints. Lower traffic dynamics are observed at Smilnytsia, Hrushev and Uhryniv.
In order to reduce waiting time, we advise you to choose less busy checkpoints to cross the border.
We remind you that crossing the border depends on the work of all representatives of the control services operating at the checkpoints and employees of the relevant services of the neighboring party.
For their part, the border guards of the 7th Carpathian Border Guard Detachment are taking exhaustive measures to engage all available forces and means to ensure the rhythmic functioning of checkpoints, registration of persons, vehicles and cargo moving across the state border of Ukraine within the Lviv region.
