Coventry street opening bonds.
$275. Five minutes.
Before the Town of Coventry issues a street-opening permit, it requires a $2,000 bond guaranteeing you restore the road. At 3% that would be $60, so this lands at our $275 minimum — and the application takes about five minutes.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A street-opening bond is a restoration guarantee to the Town of Coventry. When you cut into a town road, the town wants assurance the pavement and base are restored to its specification — not left as a patch that fails next winter.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Coventry (the obligee). If you abandon the cut or the restoration fails, the town can recover its repair costs against the bond, up to $2,000.
The bond stays in place for the permit period. Keep it active until the town signs off on your restoration; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out so a long job never lapses on a missed email.
