Run a road crew in the North East and want an EPC job with real length to it? Tripura PWD has put up 17.29 km of the Gandachara–Babusai Camp road, closing 7 July 2026.
The work in short
The Public Works Department (Roads and Buildings) is building the Gandachara–Babusai Camp road in Dhalai district for a length of 17.29 km, on EPC mode. EPC means you design and build to the output spec for a fixed lump-sum price of ₹64.25 Cr, so the design risk sits with the contractor, not the department. One contract, one road, start to finish. That suits a firm that would rather control the whole job than bill it line by line.
Best fit for
EPC road work rewards firms that can handle design, hill terrain and their own machinery. The ₹1.29 Cr EMD is moderate for the size, which opens it to established regional contractors, not only the national names. Local knowledge of Dhalai’s terrain and the monsoon window is a real advantage here.
Machines the job calls for
A 17 km hill road on EPC needs a self-sufficient spread. Excavators and dozers for cutting and formation, a crusher and wet-mix plant if you are making your own aggregate, graders and compactors for the layers, and a paver with rollers for the surfacing. Tippers that can pull a gradient on wet ground will earn their keep through the season.
