How much would it cost to knock down a single garage and build a driveway in it’s place?

Hi there,
I currently live in a house wth a garage but no driveway. The garage is right on the road at the rear of the property, but is small and unusable, meaning we have to park our cars on the road. The parking space to number of car ratio is terrible, so we live decided to knock the garage down and build a driveway in its place.
The garage would need to be demolished and removed,. The concrete slab underneath the garage would need to be broken up and removed. And then we would like a block driveway built in its place. The driveway would be about 40m2. The kerb is already dropped so that would not be a problem.
Does anyone know roughly how much this would cost?

What are the garage walls and roof made of? If either is asbestos that may increase the cost significantly."In the future, everyone will be rich for 15 minutes"0
