Setbacks
Building setback from a road and the roadside strip
Russia
About 5 m from the street red line; a 25–75 m roadside strip along regional/federal roads outside settlements.
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.
