About the Sumy – Katowice route
The Sumy–Katowice bus runs from Ukraine's north-east to the heart of Silesia: about 1,390 km and 20–33 hours on the road. Katowice and the neighbouring cities of the conurbation are a large job market for Ukrainians in industry, construction and logistics, which is why the route is in demand in Sumy. There is no direct rail link, and most bus trips involve a change — hence the wide spread in journey time. Boarding in Sumy is at the bus station at 40 Stepana Bandery street or at the Zolotyi Vik and Lvivski Kruasany stops on Naberezhna Richky Strilky. The bus crosses the border at Yahodyn – Dorohusk or Krakivets – Korczowa. In Katowice the drop-off is at the international bus station at 5 Sądowa street, and some trips stop at Katowice-Pyrzowice Airport.
