Road-inaccessible communities of Russia

From Wikipedia - Reading time: 1 min

Road-inaccessible communities of Russia includes any census-recognised urban-type settlement, selo or village or other settlement within Russia whose road network is not linked by permanent means to the larger highway grid of Russia.

Winter roads do not, by this list's reckoning, constitute a permanent link. In most cases, ferry connections count as connecting communities to the highway grid; especially in the case of major cities (ie: Yakutsk). Communities with a large road network which have no connection to the main road network (ie: Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky-Klyuchi, Kamchatka Krai, with a 500 km road) are also included here. Isolated villages (ie: Uelen) on infrequent ferry routes and not serviced by roads are suitable for inclusion, as are localities with a small road link (ie: Norilsk-Dudinka, 90 km road link with no external links to the rest of Russia).
