## About Stara Gradiška – Gradiška

The most direct road from Croatia to Banja Luka, a few dozen kilometres from the border, runs over the Sava bridge at Stara Gradiška – Gradiška. On the Croatian side the crossing lies close to the A3 motorway and the Okučani junction, which makes it convenient for drivers heading from Zagreb into northern Bosnia – and for those returning north from there. It handles cars in both directions.

The 60-day data show an unusual pattern. Leaving Croatia for Bosnia typically takes about 1 hour 45 minutes here, the longest among the published crossings on this border, and it stays that way all week – differences between days are minimal. Night is the shortest, mornings and afternoons the longest, with peaks recorded on Wednesday morning and Thursday evening among others. Heading into Croatia, on the other hand, is quicker, about an hour and twenty minutes regardless of the day; only the afternoon is slightly longer.

In the overall comparison of ten crossings Stara Gradiška comes last, mainly because of the slow exit from Croatia. When driving to Banja Luka, cross at night if you can; during the day, Jasenovac – Gradina is an alternative where leaving Croatia is a little quicker in the data. The return into Croatia, however, is predictable here, so on Sundays, when queues grow noticeably at Jasenovac or Slavonski Brod, Gradiška can be a sensible choice.
