Odesa region will gain its first border crossing with the EU when the Orlivka-Isaccea, Romania ferry opens on Sept. 1. Crossing at a narrow, 900-meter wide point of the Danube, the new ferry will replace the current 2-hour, 100 km detour through Moldova’s southern tip. “This will be a round-the-clock, modern, technological, international border crossing point for ferry, sea and river freight and passenger traffic,” Alexander Vlasov, head of Ukraine’s Fiscal Service, tells Interfax-Ukraine. He predicts the new international crossing will handle 200 trucks and 500 passenger cars a day.
