Western Harbour Tunnel – Balmain

If the Western Harbour Tunnel project acquires your property in Balmain, you may be facing compulsory acquisition. This process can be overwhelming, but understanding your rights and having the right support can help you achieve a fair and stress-free resolution.

Compulsory acquisition is a legal process where government authorities acquire private property for public infrastructure projects like the Western Harbour Tunnel. This process ensures that property and business owners in Balmain are compensated fairly for their loss.

While the process may seem daunting, there are clear guidelines to protect your rights, from ensuring fair compensation to offering dispute resolution avenues if you’re dissatisfied with the outcome. All of which Hones Lawyers has experience in negotiating.

Here’s a breakdown of what to expect if your property is being acquired for the Western Harbour Tunnel project:

1. Notification: You’ll receive an official notice from the acquiring authority outlining the details of the acquisition.
2. Property Valuation: The government will assess the market value of your property and prepare an initial compensation offer.
3. Negotiation: You’ll have the opportunity to negotiate the compensation offer if it doesn’t meet your expectations.
4. Settlement: Once an agreement is reached, the compensation will be finalised, and you’ll hand over the property.
