Aurora, CO Right of Way Permit Bond
Overview
Need to dig up a street, install utilities, or do any work within Aurora's public right of way? Aurora requires a surety bond before it will issue your right-of-way permit. This bond guarantees that you will complete the work properly, restore the public infrastructure to its original condition, and comply with all city requirements. If you leave the job incomplete or cause damage you don't fix, the City of Aurora can make a claim against the bond.
Who Needs This Bond?
Utility contractors, telecom installers, and general contractors working in Aurora's streets, sidewalks, or public easements are the most common applicants. Any individual or business that applies for a right-of-way permit from the City of Aurora will be required to carry this bond. If your work touches city-owned pavement, curb, gutter, or underground infrastructure within Aurora's right of way, this bond is mandatory.
What is this Bond For?
This bond protects the City of Aurora and its residents from the cost of unfinished or improperly completed street and utility work. You, as the principal, are bound to restore the right of way to city standards once your permitted work is done. The city, as the obligee, can file a claim if you fail to complete repairs, leave hazardous conditions, or violate permit terms. The bond ensures Aurora taxpayers are not left paying for your contractor's mistakes.
When is it Required?
Before Aurora issues your right-of-way permit, this bond must already be in place. The city will ask for proof of the bond as part of the permit application — you cannot begin work in the public right of way without it. If you are coordinating a project that requires permits across multiple phases, you may need to keep this bond active through the full duration of permitted activity.
Where Does it Apply?
This bond is specific to Aurora, Colorado and satisfies a local city requirement — it is not a state of Colorado license bond. It covers work performed within the public rights of way under Aurora's jurisdiction, including streets, alleys, sidewalks, and public utility corridors. If your project crosses into other municipalities, those jurisdictions have their own permit bond requirements.
