Driveway, drainage and right of way work in Palm Beach County

Determine the road owner and exact work limits before filing. County Engineering, the municipality and FDOT control different road segments, and private streets may require owner consent. Ask the road authority which driveway connection, drainage, excavation, utility or maintenance of traffic approvals apply. A building permit is not permission to work in the road right of way. Use County Engineering for its roads and refer city roads to the municipality; do not report an absence of road closures from a contact handoff. The County reports that its Board agreed to transfer roughly 18 miles of CR 880 near Belle Glade to FDOT; confirm the current road authority for the exact location.
