On February 11, "Russian Railway Partners" quoted the Russian Ministry of Transport as saying that in 2022, the test of unmanned vehicle transportation between China and Russia will be carried out.
Dmitry Zverev, an official of the Russian Ministry of Transport, said at the meeting of the Economic Policy Committee of the Russian Federation Council: "This year we plan to carry out a test of driverless delivery of cars across the Russian-Chinese border with simplified port procedures between two logistics warehouses. ”
In 2021, the Ministry of Transport said that driverless freight car transport could be tested on the bridge ferry between Blagoveshchensk and the Black River.

It was previously reported that the passage of the Bridge between Blagoveshchensk and the Black River would begin in November 2020, but the date was postponed due to the epidemic. Trucks and cars will pass on the bridge, with an annual passenger flow of nearly 3 million people and a freight volume of about 6 million tons (or about 300,000 cars).
