The renovation of the checkpoint “Uzhgorod – Vysne Nemecke” will cost nearly 50 million

The reconstruction of the checkpoint "Uzhgorod – Vysne Nemecke" at the Ukrainian checkpoint will cost UAH 47.8 million. 

The repair is being performed under the grant project "Modernization and reconstruction of checkpoints on the Ukrainian-Slovak border" in amount of 7.55 million euro. 

The financial share of EUR 3 million 625 thousand has already been allocated to the Transcarpathian customs office under the project. The Ukrainian part has already used some of the money, and now there is only 2,360,000 euro on the account of the Transcarpathian customs office.

According to the agreement, the state budget shall allocate co-financing for the reconstruction of the checkpoint in amount of UAH 5.5 million. But the government still has not allocated the money. The work should be completed in the first half of 2016.
