Right-of-Way Surveys Calgary & Area
Right-of-Way surveys provide a way of granting rights to a piece of land without giving away ownership. These third-party rights are enshrined within the Land Title. The specific details of these rights are registered at the Land Titles Office.
The third-parties are commonly:
- Government (e.g. access and utilities)
- Corporations (e.g. utilities such as Enmax, Atco or Shaw)
- Private individuals (e.g. shared driveways, land drainage…)
- Like subdivisions, Alberta Land Surveyors can create Right-of-Ways by registering plans at the Land Titles Office.
