Every new road, widened lane or rail line crosses land that has owners. Delivering the plan requires expropriation processes — and they rest on accurate surveying.
1. Survey and boundary reconstruction
The planned alignment is surveyed and the boundaries of the blocks and parcels it crosses are reconstructed. Here Hetz Hazafon combines its surveying and cadastre departments.
2. Expropriation and declaration plans
Based on the survey, expropriation and declaration plans are prepared, together with area and ownership calculations by parcel — including ownership plans.
3. Legal opinions
Legal teams rely on this data when preparing opinions and handling claims — for example “Aridor” claims on road projects.
4. Registration
After expropriation, registration plans (TZAR) are prepared, approved with the Survey of Israel, and the areas are registered.
Why it helps when the surveyor also supports the expropriation
When the same team performs surveying, cadastre and registration, information gaps are avoided, fewer documents pass between bodies and timelines shorten. That is why Hetz Hazafon supports expropriations for Netivei Israel, Israel Railways, Ayalon Highways, NTA and the Cross-Israel Highway Company in a multidisciplinary model, performed by company employees.
