The constituency was dissolved in 2007 when State Duma adopted full proportional representation for the next two electoral cycles. South-Western constituency was not re-established for the 2016 election, currently most of the former constituency is part of Southern constituency.

Boundaries

1993–1995: northern part of Kirovsky District, Leninsky District, Moskovsky District[2]
The constituency covered territories to the south-west of the city downtown, including some parts of central Saint Petersburg.

1995–2007: Kolpinsky District, Moskovsky District, Pavlovsk, Pushkinsky District[3][4]
After 1995 redistricting the constituency was significantly altered, retaining only Moskovsky District and losing its parts of Kirovsky and Leninsky (now Admiralteysky) city districts to new Admiralteysky constituency. South-Western constituency was pushed to the southern outskirts of Saint Petersburg, gaining most of former Southern constituency (Pavlovsk and Pushkinsky District) and Kolpinsky District from South-Eastern constituency
