We have experience in advising home owners whose properties are either subject to Compulsory Purchase Orders, or have been affected by Government Schemes, such as road widening, airport extensions, changes in road lay-out etc. Our aim is to ensure they receive fair and reasonable compensation. You may be able to claim compensation if the value of your land or property has been reduced when:

• a new road is built

• an existing road is changed

• other work on a road causes noise or fumes

There have to be physical reasons that are a direct result of the new (or changed) road. Examples are:

• more noise

• more vibration

• smell

• fumes

• smoke

• light from street lights

• solid or liquid substances discharged onto your property, for example water from the road surface
