What it is and who needs it.
What the road use bond covers
A road use agreement bond is a road-repair guarantee. When a hauler or operator runs heavy loads over Lavaca County roads not built for that traffic — oilfield, aggregate, wind-farm, or large construction hauling — the County enters a road use agreement and requires a bond to cover the damage.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal / hauler), the surety carrier, and Lavaca County through its Commissioners Court / Road & Bridge department (the obligee). If your hauling damages a county road and you fail to repair it under the agreement, the County can recover its repair cost against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Operators who repair to County spec treat the bond as a cost of access. We issue the amount the County set, priced at 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — the application collects no credit information.
