What is a Temporary Construction Easement and why do I need to sign one?
If during the course of new sidewalk construction SDOT or contractor crews need to access your property, we must ask you to sign a temporary construction easement. In many cases, our crews or contractor will only set foot on your property in order to successfully construct the sidewalk and will not impact anything on your property. In other cases, we may have to adjust your driveway to better align with the new sidewalk. SDOT staff will be contacting property owners beginning in March if a temporary construction easement is required.
