MoRTH is building a bypass around Aska town on NH-157 in Ganjam district for ₹107.6 crore, and the Aska bypass tender closes at 12:00 noon on 23 November 2026.
Taking the highway out of the town
The scope is construction of a bypass road to Aska town on NH-157 in Odisha on EPC mode, reference 07 CE NH of 2026-27, issued through the NH Odisha PWD division at Kesinga under the Regional Officer at Bhubaneswar. The portal shows ₹1,07,60,00,000 with 365 days to complete.
A town bypass is greenfield work on agricultural land, which makes it faster to build than a widening but slower to start. Land handover, service shifting and the access to the new alignment decide whether the 365 days are realistic. Check the land acquisition position in the tender document before you commit to that programme.
Bid terms and nearby work
EMD is ₹1,07,60,000, exactly 1 per cent, with no exemption, and the fee is ₹23,600. The notice has been up since June 2026 and bids open at 3:30 PM on 27 November, so there is time for a proper site visit and a quarry tie up.
A new alignment on flat Ganjam farmland is an earthwork job before it is a road job. The embankment has to be raised above flood level, so the volume of borrow fill drives the cost: excavators loading at the borrow area and a tipper fleet sized to the lead distance. Once the embankment is up, a motor grader and compactors build the layers and a wheel loader feeds the plant. Culverts and the cross drainage through paddy need transit mixers and a backhoe loader. Monsoon stops earthwork completely in coastal Odisha, so the first dry season has to carry most of the fill.
