INDOT issues a permit for any work in a state highway right-of-way — a driveway connection, utility line, or other encroachment — and conditions it on a single highway permit bond. The bond guarantees you do the work to standard and restore the right-of-way. INDOT sets the amount; we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
















No underwriting queue for the standard single permit bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with INDOT. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount on your INDOT permit, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
No credit check and no waiting — the executed bond is generated as soon as you pay. Larger amounts may get a quick review.
Submit the executed bond with your single permit application to the INDOT district. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the district insists.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter the figure INDOT set on your permit and the premium updates.
INDOT controls the state highway right-of-way under IC 8-23. Before you build a driveway connection, run a utility line, or otherwise work in the right-of-way, you pull an INDOT permit — and the permit comes with a surety bond guaranteeing you do the work to the department’s standards and restore the right-of-way afterward.
A single highway permit bond covers one specific permit / project. This "Other" version is the catch-all for non-broadband work — driveways, utility crossings, and miscellaneous encroachments. INDOT sets the bond amount for that scope; the department’s broadband corridor work is handled under a separate broadband permit.
If you damage the roadway, leave the right-of-way unrestored, or violate the permit, INDOT can recover against the bond. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We issue the amount on your permit at a flat 3% with no credit check — same honest pricing as every bond we write.
Submit the application with the bond amount on your INDOT permit — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
