Jajpur district is getting a high-level bridge across the Brahmani on the Manjuripada to Hatibari road, and the ₹159.70 crore Brahmani river bridge tender closes at 5:00 PM on 28 October 2026.
A 2.74 km crossing with approaches
The work runs from km 4.290 to km 7.030 of the Manjuripada to Hatibari road and connects to Sukinda block. That is 2.74 km of bridge and approaches across one of Odisha’s major rivers. The Chief Engineer, Bridges-I, under the Engineer-in-Chief (Civil), has issued it as an EPC contract for 2026-27, and the portal lists the form as item wise.
The contractor gets 1,096 days, three years, which allows for three dry seasons in the river bed.
What it costs to bid
The estimate is ₹159,70,00,000. EMD is ₹1,59,70,000, 1 per cent, and the portal allows exemption for eligible bidders. The fee is ₹10,000. Bids open at 3:00 PM on 29 October.
On EPC the bridge design is yours, so foundation type and span length are your call and your risk. Odisha has an unusual number of bridge tenders out at once. The Rural Works wing has the Kathajodi bridge tender in Cuttack, and EPI has the Khurda ROB tender.
Foundation plant decides the programme
A long river bridge is mostly foundations and repetition. Rotary piling rigs or well-sinking sets work from temporary islands built by excavators. Crawler cranes handle cages and liners, and later a launching girder or heavy crane places the spans. A batching plant on the bank feeds transit mixers around the clock during pours, and compactors build the approach embankments. Sukinda is mining country, so tippers and operators are available locally.
