Garfield Road East Landowners: Your Rights in the Road Widening

The NSW Government will upgrade Garfield Road East, a 3.4 km corridor between Piccadilly Street in Riverstone and Windsor Road in Box Hill. The current two-lane road will be widened to four lanes, with future capacity for six lanes. This upgrade will improve traffic flow, safety, and access for all road users, including pedestrians, cyclists, and public transport users.

The NSW and Australian Governments have jointly committed $440 million to the project. Construction is scheduled to commence in late 2026 and be complete in early 2029.

If your property falls within or near the Garfield Road East corridor, you may already have received or be about to receive a formal notice from Transport for NSW regarding compulsory acquisition or property impacts.

Do not sign anything before seeking independent legal advice.

Under the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation Act) 1991 (NSW), affected landowners have the right to independent legal and valuation advice, and the right to challenge a compensation offer that does not reflect the true value of their loss. Once an agreement is signed, your options become significantly limited.

FM Legal acts exclusively for landowners in road widening NSW and compulsory acquisition matters. We understand the process, the pressure, and what fair compensation actually looks like.
