If the home delivery will close or occupy city right-of-way, prepare Spartanburg’s temporary closure or encroachment application for the actual location and duration. It requires an approved traffic-control plan and supporting documents; a state-road location also calls for a copy of the SCDOT permit. Confirm the applicant’s current city business license before expecting processing.
City business license affects processing
The form requires the applicant's current city business license before processing.
State-road location
Include a copy of the SCDOT permit where the temporary occupation is on a state road.
Assemble the closure packet around the delivery
The Spartanburg temporary closure and encroachment application identifies these items for review:
- The closure or encroachment address, type, and starting and ending times.
- A liability certificate, surety bond and hold-harmless agreement.
- A traffic-control plan approved by the Traffic Services Manager.
- The SCDOT permit when the location is a state road.
Describe the public space the delivery may occupy
Tell the carrier whether a lane, alley, sidewalk or other public area may be needed. Ask who will prepare the closure request and traffic-control arrangements for that footprint.
The applicant is responsible for traffic-control devices, and the form says processing requires a current city business license. Use the Spartanburg building permit resources to verify that the property is within city limits before starting the city process.
This packet concerns temporary occupation of public space. The carrier must address permissions for transporting the oversized home along the route as a separate part of the trip.
