About Budomezh – Hrushiv
Budomierz–Hrushiv sits in Lubaczów county in Poland's Subcarpathian region; on the Ukrainian side the road from Hrushiv continues towards Yavoriv and on to Lviv. It handles cars (including the EU→UA category), buses and trucks up to 7.5 t in both directions. Most users are locals from around Lubaczów and the Lviv region, along with drivers looking for a quieter route than the main roads to Lviv.
The last 60 days of data show a clear imbalance between directions. Entering Poland by car takes a little over an hour on average, but on Fridays and Saturdays the typical wait reaches two hours or more, while on Mondays and Tuesdays it usually stays under an hour. Queues are shortest at night and longest in the afternoon. Leaving for Ukraine usually costs about three quarters of an hour; Wednesday is the calmest day, while on Saturdays and Sundays the wait goes past an hour. Buses heading into Poland barely queue for most of the week, Sunday mornings being the exception.
Plan the return to Poland for the night or the start of the week, and avoid Friday and Saturday afternoons. For the trip to Ukraine, midweek mornings work best. When Budomierz gets busy, compare live times with Hrebenne–Rava-Ruska, where entering Poland is quicker on average, or with Krościenko–Smilnytsia, which has the best figures in both directions on the whole Polish-Ukrainian border.
