Vyshne-Nemetske Ukraine border queue forecast 24.08.2026

Overview

The Vyshne-Nemetske public holiday falls on Monday, 24 August 2026, and is observed in Ukraine. This brief covers the full traffic window from Sunday, 23 August 2026 through Tuesday, 25 August 2026. Every figure below comes from a forecast model rather than from a measured queue, and that applies to the whole article. The holiday drives passenger movement on five corridors: Ukraine–Hungary, Ukraine–Moldova, Ukraine–Poland, Ukraine–Romania and Ukraine–Slovakia. The pattern has two halves. A departure wave builds on the Sunday before the free day, then a heavier return wave forms on Tuesday, 25 August, once the holiday ends. Monday itself is the lightest of the three days at almost every crossing in the data set, because most trips are already completed by then.

Ukraine ↔ Hungary

Day-by-day projection (2026-08-23 – 2026-08-25)

Direction outlook

Traffic from Ukraine to Hungary splits across two peak days. Luzhanka – Beregshuran carries the largest car volume of the corridor on Sunday, 23 August, with load concentrated at 06:00–07:00 and again at 10:00. Chop – Zahony and Vilok – Tisabec instead reach their maximum on Tuesday, 25 August, in the 19:00–20:00 evening block. Light truck volume at Chop – Zahony is the single dominant flow of this corridor on Sunday afternoon. Monday, 24 August, is the lightest day at every Hungarian crossing in the data set, and current counts are published on the Ukraine–Hungary car queue page.

The Hungary to Ukraine side shows a clean return-trip signal. Every leading car crossing peaks on Tuesday, 25 August, led by Luzhanka – Beregshuran in the late afternoon and evening at 16:00 and 19:00. Bus movement toward Ukraine is expected to concentrate in the 10:00–12:00 late-morning block at Chop – Zahony, which is the heaviest bus flow of the corridor. The quietest projected window on this side is Monday, 24 August.

Ukraine ↔ Moldova

Day-by-day projection (2026-08-23 – 2026-08-25)

Direction outlook

Movement from Ukraine to Moldova is front-loaded onto Sunday, 23 August. Mohyliv-Podilskyi – Otacz is the busiest car crossing of the corridor that day, with load spread between the 09:00 and 13:00 hours. Starokozache – Tudora and Bronnitsa – Unguri concentrate late, in the 19:00–23:00 evening block. Bus and light truck flows shift one day later and peak on Tuesday, 25 August. Monday, 24 August, is the lightest projected day at most crossings on this side. Because the corridor mixes two currency zones, drivers comparing costs across it can use the currency calculator for current rates.

The Moldova to Ukraine side is dominated by the return wave on Tuesday, 25 August. Tabaky – Myrne stands out as the heaviest single car flow of the entire corridor, with pressure grouped around midday and the 17:00–18:00 block. Kelmentsi – Larga, Dolynske – Cișmichioi and Starokozache – Tudora all follow the same Tuesday profile at a lower level. Every leading crossing on this side is projected to be lightest on the holiday Monday.

Ukraine ↔ Poland

Day-by-day projection (2026-08-23 – 2026-08-25)

Direction outlook

Ukraine to Poland is the heaviest corridor in this forecast, and almost all of its load lands on Tuesday, 25 August. Krakivets – Korchova is the largest car flow, with the evening block from 17:00 to 23:00 carrying most of it, while Shehyni – Medyka splits between a 07:00–10:00 morning group and a late 22:00 hour. Pedestrian volume at Shehyni – Medyka is the largest of any foot crossing in the data set. Light truck load at Yagodyn – Dorohusk and Rava-Ruska – Khrebenne is the corridor's dominant freight flow, and it clusters into the last hours of the day. Travellers counting their permitted days in the Schengen area can verify the balance with the Schengen 90/180 calculator; live counts sit on the Ukraine–Poland car queue page.

The Poland to Ukraine side inverts the timing for cars. Krakivets – Korchova, Ustyluh – Zosyn and Shehyni – Medyka all reach their maximum on Sunday, 23 August, mostly in the 05:00–13:00 daytime band. A second, distinct return wave then appears on Tuesday, 25 August, in the pedestrian and bus categories, with Shehyni – Medyka foot traffic and Uhryniv – Dolgobychuv coaches both peaking in the afternoon and evening. Monday, 24 August, remains the lightest day across the corridor in both directions.

Ukraine ↔ Romania

Day-by-day projection (2026-08-23 – 2026-08-25)

Direction outlook

Every leading crossing from Ukraine to Romania shares the same profile: the maximum falls on Tuesday, 25 August, and the 19:00 hour appears in the top three at Porubne – Siret, Diakivtsi – Rakovets, Krasnoilsk – Vicovu de Sus, Diakove – Halmeu and Solotvyno – Sighetu Marmatiei. Light truck load at Porubne – Siret is the corridor's heaviest single flow and sits at the two ends of the day, at 06:00 and again from 22:00 to 23:00. The lightest window on this side is the holiday Monday.

The Romania to Ukraine direction carries the clearest return-trip signal of the corridor. Porubne – Siret leads on Tuesday, 25 August, with car load around 13:00 and 16:00 and a secondary group of night arrivals at 03:00. Bus traffic at Orlivka – Isaccea and pedestrian movement at Porubne – Siret follow the same Tuesday shape. Sunday, 23 August, is the lighter of the two travel days on this side.

Ukraine ↔ Slovakia

Day-by-day projection (2026-08-23 – 2026-08-25)

Direction outlook

The two Slovak car crossings peak on different days. Malyi Bereznii – Ubla is the corridor leader on Tuesday, 25 August, with load at 02:00, 07:00 and 13:00, while Uzhhorod – Vyshne-Nemetske reaches its own maximum on Sunday, 23 August. Light truck volume at Uzhhorod – Vyshne-Nemetske is the dominant freight flow of the corridor and concentrates in the 05:00–06:00 early-morning block that Sunday. Pedestrian movement at Mali Selmentsi – Velke Slemence is expected to group into the 09:00–13:00 midday hours on the same day.

From Slovakia to Ukraine, Uzhhorod – Vyshne-Nemetske carries its heaviest car load on Sunday, 23 August, but the return-trip pattern is visible on Tuesday, 25 August, in every other category at that crossing: buses, pedestrians and light trucks all peak that day, with foot traffic the largest of the corridor. Malyi Bereznii – Ubla follows the same Tuesday shape, weighted toward the late block from 17:00 to 23:00. Monday, 24 August, is the lightest day on this side.

How to use this forecast

Conditions are projected to remain lighter outside the peak windows listed in each table, and the holiday Monday is the quietest of the three days on almost every crossing covered here. Volumes are modelled rather than observed, so the live checkpoint pages give the current picture closer to departure. Routes that shift to an alternative crossing change distance, fuel use and road toll exposure, and those differences can be compared with the trip cost calculator before a route is fixed.
