What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The Town of Wilton controls road openings in its public right-of-way through its Department of Public Works. Before a contractor opens or trenches a town road, Wilton conditions the permit on a surety bond sized to the work.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Wilton (the obligee). The bond guarantees you will backfill, repave, and restore the road to the Town’s specification, so Wilton is not left paying to fix a trench you walked away from.
The Town sets the bond amount to the scope of the project, so it is not a single fixed figure, and the premium is priced by that amount — 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum, not a credit or underwriting tier. It is not insurance for you — if Wilton makes a valid claim and the surety pays, you repay the surety. Enter the amount the Town gave you and see your exact price at the application.
