Register as a Public Works Contractor

Are you a contractor planning to do work in The City of Miami's public right-of-way? To work on the City’s right-of-way, contractors must be registered & approved with the Department of Resilience and Public Works through the electronic permitting system called iPW.

NOTE: The City of Miami Resilience and Public Works Department does not have jurisdiction over Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) and Miami Dade County (MDC) right-of-way; therefore, any work on these jurisdictions must be permitted directly with them.
