What is a Right of Way Easement?

A right of way is a type of easement that allows a person to use another person’s land to travel or pass through. Typically, right of way easement is a roadway or pathway for travel through the lands of another that benefits a particular person or benefits another parcel of land. This type of easement allows reasonable use for the passage and right of travel to the person holding it, or for the land whose benefit the right of way easement was established for.
