TfNSW will need to acquire land by agreement or by compulsory process in accordance with the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation) Act 1991 (Just Terms Act) to carry out construction. Property owners affected by the Moruya Bypass project, where there is to be acquisition of some of their land, are entitled to compensation. The amount of compensation is subject to many factors. TfNSW will be contacting property owners and tenants who are directly affected in due course, but it is advisable to have legal advice for Moruya Bypass compensation beforehand to understand the amount of acquisition compensation that you may be entitled to. Rural land acquisitions are complex due to many different uses of the land, and compensation can be significant where it impacts farming or other businesses.
The areas that will be impacted by the Moruya Bypass include:
Shelley Road
Larrys Mountain Road intersection
North Moruya Industrial Estate
Mountain View Road
Summary
No decision has been made yet on the final bypass route.
Transport for NSW is conducting further design work on all three shortlisted corridors.
A final decision on the route is likely several months away, after the design work is complete.
