About each permit

County Highway Access / Right-of-Way Permit

A business that builds or changes a driveway onto a County highway, or a contractor working within a County highway right-of-way, needs a permit from the DuPage County Division of Transportation under the Highway Rights-of-Way Permit and Fee Ordinance (County Code Ch. 19 Art. II, effective March 1, 2023). Sec. 19-43 sets an access permit at $1,500 per project, or $4,500 per project with roadway improvements; temporary access at $500; a right-of-way permit at $500 per project; pavement open-cut at $1,000; a detour at $500; extensions at $100 per six months; revisions at $100; and a special event at $50. A single-family residential driveway is no charge. Under Sec. 19-41, working without a permit or against an approved plan carries a fine equal to the greater of $750, twice the standard calculated permit fees, or the amount needed to correct deficiencies, and each day is a separate offence. A returned payment costs at least $30.
