This paper provides an overview on the ACROSSEE project (funded by the ERDF under the SEE program), its objectives, general methodology, and the main results. Moreover, the main survey results are presented as they relate to the Romanian road and rail border-crossing points (BCPs) with the Eastern neighbourly country, Moldavia. Results include the actual status of the road BCP, surveys on exiting and entering traffic flows, answers to specific questionnaires of the truck and car drivers in relation with origin-destination of the trips, average waiting time in queue and time required for procedures and controls. Discussion on the mathematical modelling is presented and a provisional simulation model is developed, using ARENA software. The early results are used in order to introduce the need for future assessment of the transit time in a road BCP, with the main purpose: the substantiation of the strategic and operational actions for improvements in trade and transport crossings of the EU borders, considering the need for more vigilant and less time-consuming checks at the outside borders of the EU.

Ce papier donne un aperçu sur le projet ACROSSEE (financé par le FEDER dans le cadre du programme SEE), ses objectifs, la méthodologie générale, et les principaux résultats; en outre,les principaux résultats de l'enquête sont présentés en rapport avec les points routiers et ferroviaires de passage frontaliers (PPF) entre Roumanie et Moldavie. Les résultats comprennent l'état actuel du PPF de la route; enquêtes sur la sortie et l'entrée des flux de trafic; réponses aux questionnaires spécifique des chauffeurs de camions et de voitures en relation avec l'origine-destination desvoyages; le temps moyen d'attente et le temps nécessaire pour accomplir les procedures du contrôle. Discussion sur la modélisation mathématique est présentée et un modèle de simulation prévisionnel est développé, en utilisant le logiciel ARENA. Les premiers résultats sont utilisés afin d'introduire la nécessité d'une évaluation ultérieure du temps de transit par un PPF routier, ayant comme objectif principal la justification des actions stratégiques et opérationnelles pour des améliorations dans le commerce et le transport franchissant les frontières de l'UE, compte tenu de la nécessité d'un contrôle plus vigilant et habituellement long à la frontière extérieure de l'UE.
