What this bond does

Provide ODOT's permit-specific restoration security using form 1908, distinct from the department's blanket permit form.

Who needs it
The individual or corporation responsible under an ODOT permit for work at an identified state highway location.
Who it protects
The Department of Transportation is the named beneficiary. The form secures restoration to the permit-required condition, not contractor licensing statewide or completion of every private project obligation.

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.

Identify the permit and highway location

Form 1908 asks for the ODOT permit number, authorized activity, highway and location. Use those details from the district's request rather than only a property address or a city permit number.

ODOT separately publishes form 1909 for work under permits from time to time. If you need recurring coverage, ask whether that blanket condition is appropriate instead of assuming this permit-specific offering covers later jobs.

Use the required security sum, not an assumed schedule

The official condition leaves the bond sum blank. Neither it nor this catalog option establishes a fixed minimum or annual term.

The obligation becomes void if the principal restores the ROW/property as required by the permit; otherwise it remains in effect. Ask the district how to document satisfactory restoration and release rather than assuming the bond ends when construction stops.

Apply with form 1908 and complete permit authorization

Purchase Now opens Propeller's existing Oregon DOT Permit Performance Right of Way Bond application. Supply the legal principal, district-required sum, permit details and official condition.

Review the executed bond and arrange delivery as ODOT directs. Its permits page distinguishes utility and miscellaneous uses from driveway-access and other permit programs. Confirm the correct work authorization with the district; issuance of security is not issuance of the permit.

Questions about this bond

Does the form identify one permit?

Yes. Form 1908 has fields for a permit number, activity, highway and location. ODOT publishes a separate blanket form for recurring permitted work.

Is this an insurance policy for the contractor?

No. The condition provides security to the Department of Transportation for permit-required restoration.

Does completing the job automatically release the bond?

The condition concerns restoration to ODOT's permit requirements. Confirm acceptance and release instructions with the district rather than relying on the contractor's finish date.
