Identify the Metro permission and responsible applicant

Metro's current ROW page directs applicants to its Business Portal and lists encroachment permits separately from license agreements, seating/loading/pod permits and large-area block permits. Describe whether your request concerns a work opening, temporary occupation or continuing structure and ask Public Works which permission and security apply.

Identify the street, affected sidewalk/alley or other public space, work limits, facility/property owner and performing contractor. Metro's Development Plan Review page separately discusses curb-cut permits. Do not assume a building permit, a contractor licence or another municipality's approval covers the Metro request.

Obtain the current bond request before applying

Purchase Now opens Propeller; the option displays no fixed amount or term. Obtain Public Works' current accepted form, exact legal recipient/principal, assigned sum, permit reference, coverage and dates, then match them with the issuer. The actual instrument and period for this listing remain unverified.

Arrange required execution and accepted document delivery, plans and any traffic/restoration or separate insurance requirements the permit assigns. Complete the Metro application and obtain issued permission; issuer application, payment and document delivery are separate from authorization.

Keep inspections, restoration/occupation conditions and the City's continuation/release directions. Metro explicitly marks its older Utility Policy Right of Way Guide as archived and no longer updated. Do not treat an old guide's period or a different Construction Review bond as the current security terms for your permit.
