Rights of Way

Rights of Way refer to the legal rights that allow one person or their property to pass over or use another person's land. This can include pathways, bike trails, or roads. These rights can be established through various means, such as historical use or local laws, and can be public (accessible to everyone) or private (restricted to specific individuals). Understanding Rights of Way is important for landowners and users, as it defines how land can be accessed and used, balancing the needs of property owners with public or community interests.
