## The week at a glance

Saturday, 6 June is projected to be the busiest day of the week on the Ukraine–Poland corridor, with **Smilnytsia–Krosstsenko** (🇺🇦→🇵🇱) anticipated to experience the highest traffic intensity, while Friday, 12 June is forecast to remain the lightest across all checkpoints. Movement is expected to follow standard weekend patterns, with a gradual easing of queues from mid-week onward. No public holidays are observed in either [Ukraine](https://nakordoni.eu/en/country/ukraine) or [Poland](https://nakordoni.eu/en/country/poland) this week, so traffic shifts are projected to reflect routine passenger and cargo flows.
