In the second quarter of 2026, the average daily passage of trucks through the Manzhouli automobile checkpoint exceeded 800 units, the carrying capacity exceeded the figures for the same period in previous years. Previously, congestion occurred due to the concentration of routes and complex inspection procedures. Through the joint efforts of the transport and customs authorities of the two countries, the traffic pattern was optimized: special lanes were allocated for large-tonnage, refrigerated and light-tonnage trucks, and a stepped border crossing was introduced. Express corridors with priority access have been opened for agricultural products, perishable goods and medicines; Transport quotas have been relaxed and enterprises that meet the requirements have been allowed to operate. Parking lots, repair shops and rest areas for drivers have been added at the checkpoint, which ensures efficient fleet turnover. Construction materials, everyday goods, and equipment pass through this border crossing—the viability of trade along the western corridor continues to grow.
