TheRussian route M9, also known as theBaltic Highway, is a 610 km-longtrunk road that leads fromMoscow throughVolokolamsk toRussia's border withLatvia. The road runs north of Moscow across the towns ofKrasnogorsk,Istra, Volokolamsk,Zubtsov,Rzhev,Velikiye Luki, andSebezh, ending up at the state border. It passesMoscow,Tver, andPskov Oblasts. The highway forms a part of theEuropean route E22 which continues across the border toRēzekne andRiga.[1]
In Moscow, the highway followsZvenigorodskoe Shosse,Mnevniki Street, andMarshala Zhukova Avenue before crossing withMoscow Ring Road.
