Edwardsville, IL — Right Of Way Bond
Edwardsville's excavation packet distinguishes pavement-repair security from security for building-sewer excavation on public property. Identify the work before choosing an amount, and keep the permit's 30-day expiration separate from the bond's repair obligations.

What this bond does
Maintenance security for the particular excavation and public-property restoration described in Edwardsville's accepted request.
- Who needs it
- The legal applicant required by the City, with the property owner's authorization and the excavating contractor's information.
- Who it protects

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.

Questions about this bond
Is every Edwardsville excavation bonded for the same amount?
No. The posted packet lists $1,000 pavement-excavation maintenance security and a separate $10,000 building-sewer provision. Have the City identify what applies to your work.
Does the repair period begin when I purchase the bond?
The packet's pavement-repair provision runs for two years from completion of the initial repair. Do not replace that trigger with the purchase date or the permit's 30-day expiration.
Can I start as soon as the bond is issued?
No. Issuance, filing, the actual excavation permit, advance work notice and required inspections are separate steps.
