Meghalaya Chokpot–Kharukol road rehabilitation tender

Crews who know hill roads, look here: Meghalaya PWD wants 46.08 km from Chokpot to Kharukol rehabilitated and strengthened under NESIDS, with bids closing 25 June 2026.

What’s on offer

This is a rehabilitation and strengthening job over 46.080 km, running Chokpot to Kharukol via Warima, Kenegre, Paromgre and Nokatgre, funded under NESIDS. The estimate is ₹ 130.06 Cr on a percentage-rate contract, with bid validity of 150 days. Earnest money is ₹ 1.30 Cr with exemption allowed for eligible bidders, and the tender fee is ₹ 1,30,000. Two corrigenda have already gone out, so pull the latest documents before you price anything.

Right fit for hill-road crews

Work in the Meghalaya hills is its own trade. Rain cuts your working days, haul roads are steep and narrow, and rock and slips show up where the drawings promise soil. Contractors with North-East or hill experience, the right similar- work record and the patience for monsoon programming will read this job best. The EMD exemption helps smaller eligible firms have a fair go, which is rare on a ₹ 130 Cr line. Build your programme around the dry months, because a single heavy spell can shut the alignment for days and eat into a season you can’t get back.

Machines that earn their keep here

Terrain decides the fleet. Rock breakers and hydraulic excavators do the heavy lifting on cutting and slope work, backed by hill-spec dozers and motor graders. For the pavement you want soil and tandem compactors, tippers sized for tight bends, and a paver. A crusher near site helps when bought aggregate is dear, and drilling rigs plus breakers handle the rock reaches. Keep retaining-wall shutters and dewatering pumps ready for the wet stretches.
