Jefferson County Highway Div., MO — Right Of Way Permit Bond

Jefferson County distinguishes utility installations across or under County roads from general Special Road Use. Its utility process requires a $5,000 performance bond before permit issuance and supplies a bond naming the Highway Division. Match that utility undertaking to your written request rather than using insurance or a driveway escrow as a substitute.

What this bond does

Provide the Jefferson County Highway Division, Missouri with the accepted facilities-work security for the actual County utility/ROW request.

Who needs it
The named principal installing utility pipe, casing, cable or wire across or under a County-maintained road, with any other ROW activity classified by Public Works.
Who it protects
The County utility bond addresses designated facilities installation, safe highway use and noninterference with maintenance. Its conditions extend to the principal's employees, agents and contractors; it is not a general payment guarantee or authority to work anywhere in the County.

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 County permit and financial document

The actual utility page and selected requirements call for a $5,000 performance bond before a permit is issued. The selected Construction Performance Bond names the Jefferson County Highway Division and states a minimum $5,000, with the actual sum entered on the form.

The County separately lists Special Road Use, driveway and land-disturbance permits. Its Special Use requirements ask for applicant/location/installation details, drawings, insurance and an agreement to remove items when permission expires or is terminated. That context does not establish that this utility bond replaces every other ROW document.

Confirm the principal, road authority, facilities and scope with Public Works. The bond refers to County Engineer designations and requires detailed written permission before cutting or trimming County ROW trees or shrubs.

Complete the bond, then obtain work approval

The actual bond requires a principal acknowledgment and the surety signer's power of attorney; it does not require a surety acknowledgment. Its stated nonresident attorney-in-fact condition calls for a Missouri-licensed agent/broker countersignature. Match the accepted County execution requirements with the issuer.

Purchase Now opens Propeller. The option supplies no fixed sum or term. Use the County's actual bond request, complete execution and arrange its accepted delivery. The form continues subject to 90 days' written surety termination/cancellation notice to the County Engineer/Highway Division, not a stated annual expiry.

Obtain the actual utility permit and any other applicable permission. The utility requirements call for traffic-plan approval before lane restrictions and County inspections of work. Follow actual completion/restoration acceptance and security-release directions; filing the bond alone does not authorize a lane closure.

Questions about this bond

Does Special Road Use insurance replace the utility bond?

No. The County publishes separate requirements. Utility installations across or under County roads have their own performance security before issuance.

Is the County bond automatically annual?

The selected form continues subject to its 90-day written surety notice provision. The provider option does not display a fixed term.

Does bond filing authorize lane restrictions?

No. Obtain the actual permit and approved traffic-control plan before restrictions, as the County's utility requirements specify.
