About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the access permit bond actually covers

New Jersey's State Highway Access Management Act (N.J.S.A. 27:7-89 et seq.) governs how driveways and streets connect to State highways. NJDOT issues an access permit for the construction and maintenance of that connection, and can require a surety bond as a financial guarantee that the work is done — and kept up — to the Department's standards.

This is the maintenance side of that guarantee: it backs the permit holder's obligation to maintain the completed access work so it continues to function safely. The bond is for the benefit of NJDOT and the public; if the access falls into disrepair or the work isn't completed, the Department can recover against the bond to set it right.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. NJDOT sets the amount and the term, usually tied to the cost of the access work and a defined maintenance period. Enter the figure on your permit and we issue at a flat 3% with no credit check.

State Highway Access Management Act (N.J.S.A. 27:7-89 et seq.; N.J.A.C. 16:47)New Jersey's State Highway Access Management Act (N.J.S.A. 27:7-89 et seq.) and the State Highway Access Management Code (N.J.A.C. 16:47) authorize NJDOT to issue access permits for driveways and streets connecting to State highways and to require a bond guaranteeing the construction and maintenance of that access. The bond amount and term are set by NJDOT on the permit — confirm them on your permit before issuing.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the New Jersey highway access permit bond? +
The premium is a flat 3% of the bond amount, with a $275 minimum. The amount itself is set by NJDOT on your access permit, usually tied to the cost of the access work being guaranteed. Enter that figure and the quote updates.
What does the bond guarantee? +
It guarantees the access work tied to your State highway permit — its construction and its ongoing maintenance — to NJDOT's standards. If the work isn't completed or the access isn't maintained, the Department can recover against the bond, and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Is there a credit check? +
No — the access permit bond is issued with no credit pull. Larger bond amounts may get a quick soft-pull review, which never affects your credit score.
What amount and term should I choose? +
Use the amount and term printed on your NJDOT access permit. The Department sets both, typically tying the amount to the access work and the term to a defined maintenance period. If you are not sure, send us the permit and we will confirm before issuing.
Where do I file it? +
With NJDOT, alongside your State highway access permit. We issue the executed bond ready to submit.
