What is this bond?

The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) Single Highway Permit Right of Way Bond is a type of surety bond required for specific construction or encroachment projects. It guarantees that work performed within a state highway right-of-way complies with all state regulations and safety standards. This bond ensures any public property disturbed during the project is properly restored to its original condition.

Who needs it?

Contractors, utility companies, developers, or private property owners generally need this bond before beginning a single, specific project on or near an Indiana state highway. Anyone applying for an INDOT permit to alter, excavate, or build within the public right-of-way must secure this coverage.

Why is it required?

The Indiana DOT requires this bond to protect public infrastructure and taxpayer funds from incomplete or substandard work. It provides a financial guarantee that the state will be reimbursed if the permittee causes damage, abandons the project, or fails to meet INDOT's engineering specifications.
