A culvert band installation tool includes two end plates that are substantially parallel to one another and a bolt to draw the end plates together facilitating the culvert band installation process. The ends plates are maintained substantially parallel to one another by using slip shafts that pass through long sleeves that pass through holes in the end plates. The slip shafts are substantially parallel to the bolt. Indexing pins are installed in the end plates that engage holes in the flanges of the culvert band. A band is installed by using the culvert installation tool to clamp the flanges sufficiently close together to fasten with carriage bolts.
