An update on the Toose Road landslip: acquisition of crown land

Published on 16 August 2023

Council has resolved to proceed with the compulsory acquisition of the Crown Road adjoining Lot 5 DP 752421 for the purpose of the construction of a new road at Bellbrook NSW.

The preferred long-term access solution identified under the Toose Road Access Options Study is the construction of a bridge and associated roadworks at Kempsey – Armidale Road. This access solution uses a Crown road corridor in Bellbrook between Armidale Road in the north and Toose Road in the south. Acquisition of the Crown land comprising this corridor is required for Council to construct this road.
