About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Ellington right-of-way bond covers

The Town of Ellington controls work in its highways and rights-of-way. When a contractor or utility opens or occupies a town road — for an excavation, a service connection, or a driveway cut — the town conditions the highway right-of-way permit on a surety bond.

The bond is a restoration guarantee. It runs to the Town of Ellington as obligee and stands behind your obligation to backfill, repave, and restore the road to town specifications, and to fix any settlement or damage that shows up afterward. If you leave a failed restoration, the town can recover its repair cost against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the town, you repay the surety. Contractors who restore their cuts cleanly treat the bond as a permit formality. We issue the amount Ellington set, at a flat 3% with no credit check.

Town of Ellington — highway right-of-way permitThe Town of Ellington requires this bond as a condition of its highway right-of-way permit; the bond amount and restoration terms are set by the Town of Ellington (Public Works / Highway Department) under its road / right-of-way ordinance. Confirm the required amount on your permit. We have framed this conservatively rather than citing a specific ordinance number, because Ellington’s permit terms are administered by the town rather than published as a numbered state statute.
