Cities with border points crossing creates the first impressions of the foreign visitors about Russia and therefore the search for the ways of their transformation and development is actual.

Despite the differences in the border location of these towns relative to state borders, the problems of them are very similar. At present, both Ivangorod and Svetogorsk are not in the best position, and for these border towns most of the problems of small towns of Russia are characteristic. This is a range of territorial, transport, functional planning, economic and recreational problems. |
