Four crossing structures on NH-18 and NH-49 in northern Odisha, led by a flyover at Palbani, make up the ₹81.41 crore Palbani flyover tender that NHAI closes at 11:00 AM on 8 October 2026.
One contract, four sites
NHAI’s Bhubaneswar regional office wants a flyover at Palbani and pedestrian underpasses at Kuchai and Samsanghat, all on the Jharpokharia to Balasore section of NH-18. The fourth structure is a vehicular underpass at Manda on the Baharagora to Singhara stretch of NH-49. The package is on EPC mode with 548 days to finish, roughly eighteen months.
Safety structures like these get built under live traffic. Each site needs its own diversion, so the programme depends on how many fronts you can open at once.
The bid in numbers
The tender value is ₹81,41,47,012. EMD is ₹81,41,471, exactly 1 per cent, with no exemption, and the fee is ₹20,000. The notice has been up since 17 August 2026, and bids open on 9 October.
This is a good fit for a structures contractor who already has a base in Mayurbhanj or Balasore, because four small sites reward short haul distances. Bridge crews in the state can also look at the national highway bridge packages in Odisha and the four rural bridge tenders.
Plant list for underpasses and a flyover
Underpass boxes start with excavators cutting through the existing embankment, followed by shuttering, steel and concrete from transit mixers. The flyover adds piling and girder erection, which needs a crane sized for the span. Approaches and service roads at every site take a motor grader and compactors, and a backhoe loader moves between sites for drains and utility shifting.
