If you are a licenced contractor to excavate a public road or foodpath in Dublin city, you need a road opening licence from Road Maintenance Services and obtain a T2 permit from Dublin City Council's Roadworks Control Unit.
- Eir
The amount of the fee depends on the size of the hole and type of repair needed (see the application form for more details). We will evaluate your request. If your request is granted, you must adhere to the following rules:
You must pay Dublin City Council a deposit equal to the cost of permanently reinstating the excavation you make. This deposit will be held for a minimum of 2 years while the long term impact charge to the public road or footpath is retained by Dublin City Council.
Your deposit will be refunded after written notification has been received from the applicant asking for the reinstatement to be taken in charge, providing your repair work has not degraded.
The amount refunded to you will exclude the cost of any long-term impact charge to the public road or footpath.
If the permanent reinstatement fails, the applicant must bring the reinstatement to Road Maintenance Services' standard before it can be taken in charge and deposit returned.
Otherwise, the deposit will be used to pay for the opening to be properly reinstated by Road Maintenance Services.
All decisions on deposit refunds are made by the Road Maintenance Services area engineer.
