About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Egg Harbor ROW bond actually guarantees

When a contractor opens, excavates, or works inside the public right of way — the roadway, shoulder, or sidewalk area the township controls — the Township of Egg Harbor conditions the permit on a $5,000 surety bond. The bond is a restoration-and-compliance guarantee: it stands behind your duty to restore the right of way and follow the township's permit conditions.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the Township of Egg Harbor (the obligee). If a contractor leaves a cut unrestored, damages township infrastructure, or abandons the work, the township can recover against the bond to make the right of way whole.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who restore their cuts and close out their permits treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.
