A 17.65 km district road between Bargi, Barela and Silua is going out for construction with its street lighting included, and the ₹37.91 crore Bargi Barela Silua road tender closes at 5:30 PM on 28 October 2026.
Road and lighting in one package
PWD Roads and Bridges, Central Zone Jabalpur, is the inviting office under reference 13/GEN/2026-27. The work is construction of the Bargi to Barela to Silua road, length 17.65 km, including electrification work, with 540 days allowed on a percentage rate contract.
Bundling electrification into a road contract is common on MP district roads near towns. It means the winner carries a licensed electrical sub-contractor as well as a civil team, and the handover is not complete until the lighting works.
Small deposit, moderate size
The estimate is ₹37,91,44,000. The EMD is ₹18,95,800 with no exemption, which is 0.5 per cent of the estimate, and the tender fee is ₹50,000. Bids open at 11:00 AM on 30 October 2026.
At this size and with an eighteen-month window, the job suits a regional contractor from the Jabalpur belt rather than a national EPC firm. Two other Madhya Pradesh works close in the same window, the Rewa flyover and the Itarsi sewage treatment plants under SBM 2.0.
Plant list for a district road
Seventeen kilometres is comfortable for a single moving front. One excavator and tipper set on widening and drains, a motor grader and two compactors on the layers, and a backhoe loader for culverts and pole foundations will carry most of the programme. Concrete mixers come in for cross drainage and the electrical foundations. Rates for hire around Jabalpur are competitive, which is worth factoring into a percentage rate bid.
