What this bond does

The security supports the improvement and restoration obligations identified in a Wilmington ROW permit request, rather than an unrelated contractor license.

Who needs it
The company or applicant proposing a Wilmington opening, utility installation, approach improvement or other ROW activity for which the city requires a bond.
Who it protects
The application requires compliance with city standards and restoration, and includes the applicant's city hold-harmless undertaking. Use the accepted bond condition to establish the surety's corresponding 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 work before setting security

The current application distinguishes street/ROW opening, driveway/curb/gutter/apron work and ROW use only. It separately identifies boring, open cuts, overhead or underground utility work and lane closures.

The Director determines the bond amount under W.C.O. 901.02, and the approval area includes bonding required Yes/No and a sum blank. Do not treat every use-only request as automatically bonded or choose a flat amount without the city's direction.

Prepare plans, schedule and restoration details

The form asks for drawings and maintenance-of-traffic plans, exact locations, surface types, opening dimensions and proposed start/end dates. Lane closures require their own notice and approval conditions.

The applicant agrees to complete final restoration within 30 days from completion of work and notify the Utility Inspector 48 hours before starting work on an approved permit. Those deadlines concern work and inspection, not a stated bond expiration or automatic release.

Apply with the Director's confirmed requirements

Purchase Now opens Propeller's Wilmington Right of Way Bond application in a new tab. Provide the legal applicant, city's required condition, confirmed sum, location and dates; review the issued security against the permit request.

File the instrument with the city as directed and obtain the Director's permit approval. Receiving a bond does not approve a lane closure or waive separate property-owner permission outside city ROW.

Questions about this bond

Is there one bond amount for all Wilmington ROW work?

The application says the Director specifies the amount for the improvement and records whether bonding is required. Obtain that project decision.

Does a ROW-use-only request automatically require an opening bond?

The form treats use-only and opening work separately. Have the city confirm your category and security requirement.

Does the 30-day restoration requirement set the bond term?

No. It is a work-restoration commitment. The accepted bond must establish its dates and any continuing obligations.
