When a utility, contractor, or property owner needs to build, cut, bore, or place facilities within a Georgia state highway right-of-way, the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) issues an encroachment or driveway permit — and often requires a performance bond with it.
The bond guarantees the permittee will comply with all stipulations, requirements, and specifications of the permit, complete the work to GDOT standards, and restore the right-of-way. It can also extend to any removal or corrective action GDOT determines is necessary, protecting the state's infrastructure and the public.
Because the amount tracks the work, the figure is whatever GDOT sets on your permit. Enter that amount and we issue the bond at a flat 3% with no credit check. Note that some local governments have their own right-of-way bonds — this page is the GDOT (state) performance bond.
Submit the application with the bond amount GDOT set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file with your permit.
