Right Of Way & Linear Easements in Arizona

If you're a developer, property owner, or working with infrastructure planning, chances are you'll encounter a right of way easement or linear easement at some point. At Darling Geomatics, we help you navigate these easements with clarity—so your project can move forward without surprises.

With decades of land surveying experience throughout Arizona and the Southwest, we specialize in accurately mapping and documenting easements that impact land use, access, and long-term development.

What Is a Right of Way Easement?

A right of way easement is a legal agreement that allows someone else—like a utility company, municipality, or neighboring property—to access or travel across part of your land. This is common for roads, sidewalks, or driveways that aren’t part of a public street but still need to provide access.

At Darling, we ensure your right of way easement is precisely surveyed, clearly defined, and recorded with proper legal documentation. Whether you're establishing a new easement or assessing an existing one, our licensed surveyors provide the expertise to support your planning, zoning, and permitting processes.

We’ve supported projects across Tucson, Phoenix, and rural Arizona for over 30 years. Our team understands the unique zoning codes, desert terrain, and utility regulations that shape easement design in the Southwest.

What Is a Linear Easement?

A linear easement is similar to a right of way easement, but it’s typically long and narrow—designed for infrastructure like fiber optic lines, pipelines, drainage channels, or electrical transmission. These easements often span multiple parcels and can impact how land is developed or subdivided.

We use high-accuracy tools like 3D laser scanning and drone-based topographic surveys to map these corridors quickly and efficiently. This minimizes conflicts, ensures regulatory compliance, and keeps your project on schedule.

Why Accurate Easement Surveys Matter

Poorly defined easements can delay construction, reduce property value, or create legal disputes. At Darling Geomatics, we help eliminate that risk through:

  • Boundary and ALTA/NSPS land title surveys that reveal existing easements
  • Topographic surveys that support grading, engineering, and utility design
  • Easement plats and legal descriptions suitable for county or city filing
  • Coordination with title companies, civil engineers, and planners
