The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) will use the power of eminent domain to take property in Goldsboro as part of a road construction project that will widen US-13 from New Hope Rd. to north of Saulston Rd. 190 Goldsboro property owners are expected to be affected by the taking. Both commercial and residential properties will be taken by NCDOT as part of the Goldsboro highway widening project.
Goldsboro U.S. Highway 13 Widening
The project — #U-3609B — covers a 3-mile section of U.S. Highway 13 from New Hope Rd. to north of Saulston Rd. in Goldsboro.
NCDOT will convert the entire section of US-13 to a four-lane divided highway, and eliminate more than all left-hand turns into nearby Goldsboro businesses and residences. These changes are designed to improve traffic flow and reduce curves.
Residential and commercial property will be taken on both the north and south sides of US-13 in Goldsboro. Certain commercial businesses may be forced to relocate as a result of altered traffic patterns, and some businesses have already left.
Significant easements along property owners’ land will be taken as part of the Highway 13 widening project in Goldsboro, and these easements may significantly decrease property values.
Construction may damage existing property or structures, and property owners are entitled to compensation for any losses, as well.
“My property is being taken as part of the Goldsboro US-13 highway widening project. What can I do?”
If your residential or commercial property is being taken as part of the Highway 13 widening in Goldsboro (NCDOT project #U-3609B), you do have legal options. While you can’t stop the government from taking your property under eminent domain, the Constitution guarantees that you are given “just compensation.” Additionally, the government’s taking may decrease the value of your remaining property, and you deserve compensation for that loss as well. Unfortunately, in many cases, the government will try to pay as little as possible for your taken property. Do NOT accept the government’s first offer for your taken property. You may be entitled to much more and one of our eminent domain attorneys can help.
