You should check the language in the instrument that created the easement. Often there is language as to obligations and rights that is not carried forward in deeds. The title company or attorney who represented you should have a copy of the original easement. If the deed that created the easement is silent as to upkeep then no one is responsible and the responsibility may fall to the one who needs to use it for access. In that case, the parties may need to make a new agreement.
