The Finnish government has launched a trial e-Clearance Vehicle Reservation Border Pass (VRBP) to reduce bottlenecks at primary border stations at Vaalimaa, Nuijamaa and Imatra on the Russian Border.

According to Finnish Board of Customs (FboB) figures, daily border queues averaged 15km on weekdays and 25km at weekends in the first nine months of 2012.

More than 12,000 vehicles – 60% of them trucks – pass through Finland’s nine border stations into Russia each day.

Around 60% of all road freight traffic between Finland and Russia moves through the Vaalimaa border station in south-east Finland. The government is spending €60 million to upgrade IT and truck e-clearance systems at all borders stations by 2016.

Harri Koskinen, a Helsinki-based transport industry analyst, said: “The initiative will not come too soon for haulage companies, but even so it will only speed up crossings on the Finnish side of the border.

“There will be the usual delays when trucks leave Finnish border points and reach Russian border stations. This is not a co-ordinated scheme.”
