It ensures that the contractor completes the project according to city standards and properly restores streets, sidewalks, or utilities. If the contractor damages public infrastructure or abandons the project, the bond provides funds for the city to rectify the issue.

Who needs it?

Contractors, developers, and engineering firms planning to perform construction or excavation work in or around public rights of way in Redmond, Washington, typically need this bond. It is generally required before the city will officially issue a right-of-way or development engineering permit.

Why is it required?
