A year long repair and maintenance contract on the 10.3 km Puruliya bypass in West Bengal is open for bids, and the Puruliya bypass tender closes at 12:00 noon on 9 November 2026.
Ten kilometres, a full year, second call
The contract covers repair and maintenance of the Puruliya bypass section from km 84.030 to km 94.345 of NH-32, a length of 10.315 km, for 365 days. The reference, 17/2025-26/Puruliya Bypass/O and M/2nd Call, marks it as a second call, so the first round did not close out.
Maintenance of a short bypass is unglamorous work with a predictable rhythm: patching, crack sealing, shoulder repair, drain clearing before and during the monsoon, markings and signage upkeep. Regional Office Kolkata is the authority.
The fee is the unusual number here
The estimate is ₹32,21,92,066 with an EMD of ₹64,44,000, exactly 2 per cent. What stands out is the tender fee of ₹50,000, five times the usual NHAI figure, so check you are willing to spend it before downloading. Bids open at 12:00 noon on 10 November.
Over 365 days on 10 km, the machines that pay are the ones parked on site. A backhoe loader for drains and shoulders, a small roller, a tipper, a mixer for kerb and drain repairs, and an excavator for the monsoon work when culverts silt up. Bring in a paver and bigger rollers only for the periodic renewal lengths. Running cost over a year matters more than peak output here.
