## What kind of crossing this is

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.

Right now it ranks 6 of the 9 crossings on this border that report data: 1:09 outbound against 15 min at the fastest one (Kelmentsi – Larga).

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.
