What is this bond?

The City of Mobile Right of Way bond is a municipal surety bond that guarantees contractors will properly and safely complete construction work within public rights-of-way. It serves as a financial guarantee that public property, such as roads and sidewalks, will be repaired and restored to their original condition after the work is finished.

Who needs it?

Contractors, utility companies, and developers performing excavation, paving, or maintenance work on or near public roads in Mobile typically need this bond. The city generally requires it to be on file before issuing a street cut or right-of-way permit.

Why is it required?

The City of Mobile requires this bond to protect public infrastructure and taxpayer funds from damage caused by incomplete or substandard construction work. If a contractor fails to meet municipal standards or abandons a project, the bond provides financial compensation to the city to complete the necessary repairs.
