Description
The highway crosses the border with Moldova twice and west of the city of Reni it continues as Moldovan national road M3.[2] The highway also passes Moldovan village of Palanca, Ștefan Vodă where Ukraine keeps jurisdiction over the road.
The highway stretches through the historic and cultural region of Budzhak and ends at the "Reni" border checkpoint. As of 2016 it is in extremely poor condition, ranked as one of Ukraine's worst major roads.[3]
The section of M15 from Reni to Izmail was previously designated as P33. Portion of the highway Odesa–Reni between Reni and Orlivka follows narrow strip that is squeezed between Lake Cahul and the Danube.
