“The project includes stations along with formation works of at-grade and elevated section of 17. 63 kilometres,” the official said.
The tender package comprises design and construction of elevated viaduct of 14.213 km length, at-grade formation of 3.417 km length, construction of seven station buildings and Railway Over Bridge.
This is for the first time that we will award contract to one party instead of breaking it into small tenders as done in our previous projects, a source in the K-RIDE told PTI. They said the K-RIDE learnt the lessons from the two ongoing works of BSRP in Corridor-2 and Corridor-4. Also, this is the highest amount of tender in the Bengaluru Suburban Rail Project, the sources added.
