Easements and right-of-way are basically the same as it relates to passage over someone else's land. However, you can have different kinds of easements. The easement holder gets to use the easement. The person whose land is burdened cannot interfere with the right to use. Do you have a deed referencing the easement? There are too many permutations to give you better advice.
If you want review of an existing document, either consult with a real estate attorney in your area or feel free to contact me.
