What this bond does

This offering identifies security for work on, about, or adjacent to Connecticut state highways or use of their ROW. Match CTDOT's Permit Bond rather than assuming a municipal road form or an MTG certificate bond is equivalent.

Who needs it
Permittees furnishing CTDOT-requested highway or encroachment permit security.
Who it protects
The posted Permit Bond names the State of Connecticut and addresses completion of the permitted work, compliance, specified state losses, and restoration. Its completion condition concerns the permit undertaking, not every private contract.

Your bond option

This is the option on record for this bond.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Match the permittee and district undertaking

CTDOT distinguishes the permit application from the issued encroachment permit. The appropriate District Special Services office depends on the town where work occurs; give it the location, activity, plans, and actual permit references.

The posted April 2021 Permit Bond incorporates the permit or permits and has a blank amount field. Ask the district for the accepted form, amount, legal permittee, and State of Connecticut recipient wording. No fixed sum or term is displayed in this option.

Keep original filing and written release separate

CTDOT's online application resource says original bond documents must be on file with the District Office. Online submission is available only for listed activities; contact the district for work not listed rather than assuming every project follows the same online path.

Purchase Now opens Propeller in a new tab. Check the issued document and arrange district filing as directed. The posted bond remains binding until written cancellation consent from the Commissioner or authorized agent; payment or work completion alone does not issue the permit or establish release.

Questions about this bond

Is the MTG Bond interchangeable with the Permit Bond?

CTDOT posts separate forms. The Permit Bond incorporates permits, while the MTG form concerns an OSTA certificate. Use the undertaking requested for your work.

Does uploading the permit application file the original bond?

CTDOT's online resource separately requires original bond documents on file with the District Office. Follow that office's current delivery directions.

Does finishing work automatically cancel this instrument?

The posted Permit Bond requires written cancellation consent from the Commissioner or authorized agent. Confirm the release process; no fixed purchase term is displayed here.
