SHARING HELPS OTHERS



3 civil construction firms last week submitted bids for 3.5 km Package DC-01A (Vikaspuri Ramp – Mangolpuri) of Delhi Metro Magenta Line’s 28.92 km Janakpuri West – RK Ashram extension.

This elevated section with 4 stations was originally a part of the Delhi Metro Phase 4 project‘s 12.375 km Package DC-01 connecting Vikaspuri Ramp and Haiderpur-Badli Mor Station via 10 stations.

Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) had awarded its construction contract in November 2019 to China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation – KEC International (CCECC – KEC) JV with a deadline of 30 months.

Construction work was launched in December 2019 wherever a clear right-of-way was available, but portions of the Vikaspuri Ramp – Mangolpuri section were held up for years due to pending permission approvals to cut trees enroute.

After negotiations between CCECC – KEC and DMRC, this section was offloaded from DC-01’s scope. DMRC carved it into a separate package DC-01A and invited tenders for its construction in September with a 24 month deadline and Rs. 398.63 crore estimate.
