Center: Vizag-Kharagpur Expressway
#1
Finally the second major access-restricted expressway is being planned and fast-tracked between Vizag and Kharagpur. This one will pass through the coastal districts of Odisha including the capital area. The following are links with more information on this.


Following are some excerpts:

Quote:10 firms having submitted bids to prepare Detailed Project Reports (DPRs). MoRTH (Ministry of Road Transport and Highways) opened the technical bids for the project on 5 November 2024.

MoRTH invited tenders in June 2024, with a deadline of 1.5 years for completion. A total of 18 bids were received—10 for Package 1 and 8 for Package 2.

The next step involves a detailed technical evaluation of the bids, which may take a couple of months. Afterward, the financial bids of the technically qualified consultants will be opened, determining the lowest bidder for each package.

The expressway has been divided into two packages:

Package 1: Kharagpur – Chandikhol – Cuttack – Khorda – Tangi (390 km)

Package 2: Tangi – Brahampur – Visakhapatnam (393 km)

Following is excerpted from https://themetrorailguy.com/2024/11/05/1...-contract/


Quote:10 firms have submitted bids to prepare two Detailed Project Reports (DPR) for the construction of Kharagpur – Cuttack – Visakhapatnam (Vizag) Expressway after Ministry of Road Transport and Highways of India (MoRTH) opened technical bids on Tuesday.

... 

MoRTH received a total of 18 bids – 10 for Package 1 and 8 for Package 2.

Bidders
Aarvee Associates Architects Engineers and Consultants Pvt Ltd. – Package 1 Only
AICONS Engineering Pvt. Ltd.
Chaitanya Projects Consultancy Private Ltd. – Package 1 Only
Consulting Engineers Group Ltd.
Egis India Consulting Engineers Pvt. Ltd.
LEA Associates South Asia Pvt. Ltd.
Lion Engineering Consultants Pvt. Ltd.
L N Malviya Infra Projects Pvt. Ltd.
SA Infrastructure Consultants Pvt. Ltd.
Theme Engineering Services Pvt. Ltd.

The bids have now been sent for technical bid evaluation which can take a couple months to complete. When that is done, the financial bids of the technically qualified bidders will be opened to reveal who’s the lowest bidder and most likely consultant for each package.

If contracts are awarded in the first half of 2025, then we can expect the DPR to be finalized by 2026-end. The DPRs will then go through the motions of approval, land acquisition and other clearances – so at this time I see construction work starting no sooner than 2028.

Once operational, Kharagpur – Vizag Expressway is expected to reduce the travel time between both cities to about 8 hours from the current 14 hour journey. Back in August, I created a basic information page for it where I’ll be posting updates. Check it out here: Kharagpur – Vizag Expressway – Information & Status

This expressway (Packages 1 & 2) is part of a series of 5 new expressways (or “High Speed Corridors” as MoRTH now calls them) proposed for construction in India. Here’s a summary of all – click on the package number to see their bidder list (to be updated as I post):

Kharagpur – Cuttack – Visakhapatnam Expressway (Packages 1 & 2)
Jamnagar – Bhavnagar – Bharuch Expressway (Packages 3 & 4)
Gwalior – Jhansi – Sagar – Lakhnadon Expressway (Packages 5 & 6)
Bangalore – Mangalore Expressway (Package 7)
Gangtok – Siliguri Expressway (Package 8)
