A control line is a surveyed reference line established on a construction site from which horizontal measurements are made to set the location of structures, pipes, road edges, and other improvements. Control lines are offset from the actual construction elements to keep reference stakes out of the active work zone. Layout crews work from control lines to re-establish design positions as construction proceeds.
