 The Marathon County Highway Department processes all Right-of-Way permits (Utility, Residential Driveway, Commercial Driveway, and Use of ROW) and Transportation permits (Single Trip, Seasonal, Milk Hauler, and Seasonal AG) using, Oxcart Permits, a web-based permitting system. No paper, emailed, or fax applications are accepted.

Some of the many benefits to using the Oxcart platform include:

  • Access to a simple, online interface for requesting Right-of-way permits on Marathon County Highways.
  • Paperless permits downloadable to your computer or any mobile device.
  • Elimination of tedious paper processes, faxing and phone calls.
  • Expedient process of permit approvals.
  • Permit approvals pushed to your email inbox. 

Payment – Once a permit is approved, the applicant will receive an e-mailed invoice that must be paid with a charge card (ONLY) before the permit can be viewed.

Processing and Credit Card Charges - Oxcart collects a nominal convenience charge and Credit card processing charge for each permit that is included in the permit fee.
