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.

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.

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.
