Founded on 15 June 1865 on the basis of the Chief Administration for Lines of Communication and Public Buildings. By 1917, it was comprised of a Ministerial Office, a Council for Railway Affairs, a Ministerial Council, a Railways Administration Board (previously a Department), a Railway Construction Administration Board, an Administration Board for Inland Waterways, an Administration Board for Main Roads, and a number of other special subdivisions. In St. Petersburg, the Ministry of Transport Communications was principally located at 117 Fontanka River Embankment, and 17 Italyanskaya Street (the latter housed the Inland Waterways Administration Board). After October 1917, the People's Commissariat for Transport Communications was established on the basis of Ministry of Transport Communications.
