Setbacks
Building setback from a road and the roadside strip
Czechia
The exact zone depends on the type and height of the structure, the exceptions in Section 11 and the applicable local planning documentation. Verify the specific project before construction.
Distances and rules
A public road has red lines and a building setback. Near a street the building is set back from the red line; along regional or federal roads a wider roadside strip restricts construction. A public road is part of the urban-development plan — unlike a garden path.

Important limitation
This is a planning aid, not a legal opinion. Before construction, check the local land-use rules, easements, the network/utility operator’s requirements and neighbour buildings.
