1.5-2 hours
The Kyiv - Zhytomyr route runs along the M-06 highway - Ukraine's main transport axis toward the West. The 140-kilometer distance is covered in 1.5-2 hours on a high-quality road that is being actively modernized. Zhytomyr is the first major stop on the path from Kyiv to Lviv and further into Europe. Key goods include construction materials (granite crushed stone from Zhytomyr quarries), timber and lumber from Polissya, food products, agricultural products, and transit cargo heading to western provinces. Crushed stone from Zhytomyr quarries is used extensively at construction sites in Kyiv and the Kyiv region. The route is part of an international transport corridor, making the traffic intensity for freight transport one of the highest in the country. This ensures steady demand for transport in both directions. The proximity to Kyiv makes the route ideal for daily trips - carriers perform several trips a day with construction materials and other cargo. CarGoPro helps carriers on the Kyiv - Zhytomyr route find steady loading with construction materials, timber, and other goods. Construction companies and quarries post orders on the platform, providing regular business for dump trucks and flatbeds.
