What it is and who needs it.
What the street/road cut bond covers
Jefferson County requires a right-of-way use and construction permit — commonly called a street or road cut — for work in county right-of-way or easements. Its Transportation & Engineering division conditions that permit on a job-specific permit bond.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Jefferson County (the obligee). The bond guarantees that you restore any public road, street, or sidewalk to its original condition after the work is complete.
It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays the County on a valid claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who restore the cut to county standards treat the bond as a permit formality.
