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
Volyn region, near Volodymyr; on the Polish side lie Zosin and the road to Hrubieszów. Ustyluh is the main car crossing for the whole of Volyn, and that is not a matter of convenience but of having no alternative: cars are not processed at neighbouring Yagodyn, so the region's entire passenger flow collects here.
The consequence shows up immediately in the data. Ustyluh is effectively the only crossing on the Polish direction with practically no empty hours: even the quietest Sunday nights still show a real queue, whereas neighbouring posts read zero at the same time. The peak falls on Friday as you would expect and the lightest day is Wednesday, but the gap between them is narrower than anywhere else. This is an evenly loaded crossing rather than one with spikes.
For a driver that calls for a different approach. Waiting for a "window" at Ustyluh is largely pointless, because there isn't one. What does work here is pace: our calibration puts Ustyluh among the fastest posts for processing speed, so even a long-looking queue moves markedly better than the same queue at Nyzhankovychi or Smilnytsia. If time is tight, look at the calculated waiting time rather than the number of cars.
This crossing handles: Cars, Buses.
There is no pedestrian lane here: only 1 of the 9 crossings on this border let you walk across.
Scheduled coaches have a lane of their own.
Right now it ranks 9 of the 9 crossings on this border that report data: 2:27 outbound against 15 min at the fastest one (Smilnytsia – Krosstsenko).
Our calibration allows 4 minutes per car here. Across all crossings that constant runs from 4 to 10 minutes, and 28 of them are slower than this one.
Hence the formula for this crossing: 15 minutes for the crossing itself plus 4 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 →
