About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Bedford, Indiana requires a bond before you cut a city street or install or repair sidewalk in the public right-of-way. The bond guarantees to the city that you will restore the pavement, curb, and sidewalk to city standards after your work.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Bedford as the obligee. If you leave a street cut or sidewalk unrestored, or a patch fails, and the city has to repair it, the city can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the city, you repay the surety. Contractors who restore the right-of-way to spec treat the bond as a permit formality.
