A blanket excavation right-of-way bond is a restoration guarantee to the City of Milford that covers every excavation permit you pull during the term — instead of a separate bond per dig. It backs your promise to backfill, compact, and restore any City street, curb, or right-of-way you open.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Milford (the obligee). If you fail to restore the right-of-way or leave a defective patch, the City can recover the cost against the bond.
The City of Milford sets the bond amount on its blanket excavation permit packet. The premium is priced by that amount — 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — so one bond covers your right-of-way work for the term.
Submit the application with the bond amount the City of Milford set — most applicants see their price and issued bond instantly.
