520			_aLT (REF/21/1991) 13 July 1992. Concerns the amount of betterment attached to a bungalow owned by the claimants (H) on the valuation date of September 30 1989, as a result of a new relief road constructed some 34.5m from the south wall of the bungalow. The old road was 7.7m from the north elevation of the bungalow. H sought £2,750 being 5% of the unaffected value. Gwent (G) contended that no compensation was payable because the new road benefitted the property because of the reduction of traffic on the old road. It was "held" that a purchaser would add 2% to reflect betterment and deduct 6% to arrive at a net deduction of 4% of the unaffected value of £55,000 - the sum awarded was £2,250.
