Re: Real Estate
There is no such required size or particular dimension for any particular easement or right of way. The real consideration for such an issue is what should the size reasonably be under the particular facts and issues which may be applicable to a given situation.
Whether or not a particular owner should initiate an action to expand the
size of an easement or right of way already in place and available for his or her use, is a matter which should be carefully discussed with an attorney who is knowledgeable in local land use and real property issues in the area where the property is located.
