I’d just straight ask for keys to the gate. In a nice neighborly way.

StalwartBraveTrue Intervention Needed

With cookies or banana bread. Offer to work together to build the gate into something prettier.

Land use issue:there is a road easement through my neighbors property to access

It might not even be targeting you. I wouldn't assume adversarial intent.

He is not targeting me at all. He just doesn’t want traffic but he’s stopping

An easement isn't blanket access to his property by whomever.

Right. My contention is the signs can greatly confuse people from accessing

idacoug

Understood. That might be tricky, and call for some finesse.

That's a win/win in my book

Is the easement recorded? And what is the state of the road - paved, dirt?

Yes. It’s recorded at the county. It’s a gravel/dirt road.

He should be able to post signs, etc., but he shouldn't block your access with a gate unless it can be easily opened.

The road easement is the only access to my property. Yes…there will be traffic

Get the recorded docs for the easement. The language should tell you what

Do you have a copy of the easement? If so, keep a hard copy on you just in case

P.S. it isn't illegal for him to post signs or a gate. He has the right to keep
