Future prospects of the project

The Head of the JMA noted that together with Teresa Kubas-Gul, the newly appointed head of the Podkarpackie Voivodeship, they checked the progress of work at the site of the future road crossing point. 

In addition, Kubas-Gul suggested that a pedestrian crossing point could be created as the next stage of the project. 

Kozytskyi supported this idea, noting that such plans had already been discussed in the initial stages of the project.

The voters of the OVA and Podkarpackie Voivodeship have also initiated proposals to build a railroad connection at this checkpoint. However, there is currently no exact information on when a response will be received from the ministries of development of both countries.

Remember! To travel abroad by car, the driver must take out a Green Card insurance policy. This car insurance is mandatory in 50 countries, including the EU. If the driver does not have an insurance policy, he or she will have to compensate for all damages (to the car, driver and passengers) at his or her own expense. At the same time, he will additionally be fined for not having insurance for the vehicle, the amount of which depends on the period of insurance expiration. In some cases, the police may seize the vehicle and deport the driver with a subsequent entry ban.

You can apply for a Green Card quickly and easily here. There is a special offer on the website: when you take out a car insurance policy for traveling abroad for a period of 1 month or more, you will receive fuel as a gift, or for a period of 6 months or more - + 15 days of the policy as a gift.

We remind you! this year, drivers will be issued newly designed driver's licenses and vehicle registration certificates. This innovation was introduced to make it more difficult to produce fake driving licenses. Read more about the updated documents in our previous article.
