Ivangorod's automobile checkpoint restoration carries on
The Ivangorod automobile checkpoint, a key border crossing located in the Leningrad Region on the border with Estonia, is currently undergoing a significant reconstruction as part of the national project "Efficient Transport System." This project aims to modernize and improve the checkpoint's infrastructure, with the expectation of increased capacity and efficiency.
Active construction and installation works are underway, including the building of office and production structures for freight transport, checkpoints for tourist groups and passenger transport, and facilities for the cynological service. Additionally, an in-depth inspection box and screening areas with a canopy are being constructed to streamline the inspection process.
The reconstruction works at the Ivangorod automobile checkpoint have temporarily closed the checkpoint for automobile traffic since February 1, 2024. However, traffic along its pedestrian component remains open. Despite the closure, the project is progressing steadily, with the dismantling phase already completed.
While specific quantified targets or detailed anticipated outcomes regarding vehicle and passenger throughput have not been explicitly documented in publicly available sources, the expected result of the reconstruction is an increase in the capacity for people up to 11,300 people and in vehicle bandwidth up to 1,860 vehicles.
The reconstruction is expected to significantly improve the checkpoint's capacity to handle vehicles and passengers, reduce waiting times, enhance the flow efficiency via improved lanes and inspection facilities, and upgrade security and customs processing technology. These improvements will better handle cross-border traffic and support higher volumes of both commercial and passenger vehicles.
However, the exact completion date for the reconstruction is not specified in the text. The Ivangorod automobile checkpoint is anticipated to reopen post-reconstruction around mid-2026, with likely enhanced capacity and processing efficiency, although exact anticipated outcomes have not been publicly detailed as of now.
