Questions about this bond
Does every ROW occupation require the excavation bond?
That is not established. Engineering lists separate permit routes. Match the actual activity and requested instrument.
Is three-year restoration maintenance the bond term?
No bond period is established by that work-maintenance statement. Obtain the accepted instrument's actual dates, continuation and release terms.
Does buying security authorize a street opening?
No. Submit the required project materials and issued document, obtain the actual city permit and follow traffic-control and inspection conditions.
