About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A City of Tulsa non-arterial right-of-way bond is a restoration and compliance guarantee to the city. It backs your promise that any cut, bore, or trench you make in a non-arterial (residential or collector) street is restored to Tulsa's standards.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Tulsa (the obligee). If you fail to restore the pavement or damage the right-of-way, the city can recover its repair costs against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The non-arterial amount is lower than the arterial bond because these streets cost less to repair.

City of Tulsa — non-arterial right-of-way permittingThe City of Tulsa requires a right-of-way bond as a condition of working in a non-arterial street right-of-way, with a lower penal sum than the arterial bond. The $100,000 amount and the bond terms are set by the City of Tulsa's Engineering / Public Works departments; confirm the current requirement with the city before filing.

FAQs

Common questions.

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

Do I pay the $100,000? +
No. You pay $3,000 — the flat 3% of the bond amount. The $100,000 is the surety's maximum liability to the City of Tulsa, not a deposit.
How is this different from the arterial bond? +
Same purpose, lower amount. Non-arterial (residential / collector) streets cost less to repair, so the City of Tulsa sets a $100,000 penal sum here versus $250,000 for arterial right-of-way work.
What does the bond guarantee? +
That you restore any cut or excavation in a Tulsa non-arterial right-of-way to the city’s standards. If you fail to and the city repairs it, Tulsa can claim against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Is there a credit check? +
Not on this bond — the application has no credit section.
When does it renew? +
Terms run 1, 2, or 3 years. You’ll get renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available, and the bond must stay active for your Tulsa ROW permit.
