Trunk Road Proposals and Your Home

A fair deal

Telling you about our proposals

If we are likely to need your home (or part of it) for a motorway or trunk road scheme, we will:

  • send you details of our proposals and give you the chance to give your views on them as they develop;
  • advertise any public exhibition we may hold where the route or route options will be shown by maps, plans and photographs; and
  • tell you about and give you a copy of any draft compulsory purchase order which affects your home.

Paying you fair compensation

If we buy your home, we will pay you fair compensation in line with the statutory compensation code.

Our agents

PeopleWe currently use the District Valuer to assess and negotiate the compensation we pay. The Government's property lawyers or private solicitors act as our agents for most conveyancing work. We monitor the performance of our agents to make sure that you get a fair and efficient service.
