Level crossing 61-Spl between Barauni and Tilrath stations is to be replaced by a rail over bridge worth Rs 57.17 crore, and this re-tender closes on 23 September 2026.
The job on the ground
Bihar Rajya Pul Nirman Nigam Limited is building the bridge in lieu of level crossing number 61-Spl at kilometre 177/17-19 on the section between Barauni railway station and Tilrath railway station. Barauni is a heavy freight junction, so the gate at this crossing stays shut for long stretches of the day. Replacing it with a road bridge is the standard fix, and it is why the state keeps a steady pipeline of these packages.
Note that this is a re-tender
The reference number carries the word RETENDER, which means an earlier call did not produce an award. That is worth knowing before you price. Sometimes the first round failed on bidder count, sometimes on rates against the estimate. Either way, look at the estimate against your own build-up rather than assuming the published figure is generous. Earnest money is Rs 67,17,000 and the tender fee is Rs 10,000, and the contract is let on a percentage rate basis.
Equipment and sequencing
The rail portion of an ROB is a small part of the length but it governs the calendar, because girder launching only happens in blocks the railway grants. The rest is approach work: long ramps on both sides, retaining structures, and a road surface at the top. Plan for piling plant, a crawler crane with launching capacity, tippers and a soil compactor for the embankments, transit mixers for deck and retaining walls, and a paver for the carriageway. On a Barauni site, land and utility shifting on the approaches usually decides whether the early months run to plan.
