Setback from a public road
Setbacks

Building setback from a road and the roadside strip — Netherlands

Netherlands

The applicable zone depends on the municipal environmental plan, provincial rules and water-board rules. Check the official Rules on the Map for this property before fixing the distance.

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.

Official property check Open Rules on the Map and run the Permit Check for the planned activity Netherlands — Environment and Planning Portal: rules and permit check

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.
