How the 1–5 index is calculated

We ask our own nakordoni.eu API for air-raid alerts within 250 km of this crossing’s coordinates. The source ties alerts to raions and we place each one on the centre of its oblast — so the distance in the table is the distance to the centre of that region, not to the alert itself.

The index takes the closer of two things: the nearest region under an active alert, and the nearest tracked airborne object. 5 means closer than 50 km, 4 up to 100 km, 3 up to 160 km, 2 up to 220 km, 1 up to 250 km. If the alert is in the very region this crossing stands in, the index is never below 4 — that is the region you are driving into.

The data is deliberately not real-time: the API answers with a 1–3 minute delay, plus up to 90 seconds of our own cache. The exact time of the snapshot is always stated above.

What kind of crossing this is

Border crossing Rososhany – Brichen

Chernivtsi region, Dnistrovskyi district; the Moldovan side is Briceni. This is one of the smallest posts on the Moldovan direction: cars, coaches and pedestrians are processed, but it is designed almost exclusively for residents of the two border villages rather than for transit.

You will not find queue figures on this page, and the reason is not technical at our end: load data simply does not reach us from Rososhany. We deliberately leave the field empty rather than substituting an average from the neighbours — at a small post that assumption goes wrong most badly of all, because where three cars normally stand, the arrival of fifteen changes everything.

If you are travelling from northern Bukovina and want to understand the situation in advance, steer by Mamalyha or Sokyriany — they are close by and in the same direction. Mamalyha additionally reports a live waiting time, so it is the one to keep as your main option, with Rososhany considered when this particular village suits you or when you know for certain there are no queues here.

This crossing handles: Cars, Buses, On foot.

You can cross here on foot — 4 of the 9 crossings on this border allow it.

Scheduled coaches have a lane of their own.

Our calibration allows 6 minutes per car here. Across all crossings that constant runs from 4 to 10 minutes, and 4 of them are slower than this one.

Hence the formula for this crossing: 15 minutes for the crossing itself plus 6 minutes for every car ahead of you. Document checks, customs inspection and delays on the neighbouring side are not in that number — we count the queue only. The full method, and what this figure leaves out →
