Jewar Link Expressway Tender, Package-1 Uttar Pradesh (₹2,108 Cr)

UPEIDA has put Package-1 of the Jewar Airport to Ganga Expressway link expressway out to tender at ₹2,108 crore, covering km 0.000 to km 24.467 across Gautam Buddh Nagar and Bulandshahr, with bids closing on 20 August 2026.

What Package-1 actually covers

The Jewar Link Expressway tender is the first package of the corridor connecting Jewar airport to the Ganga Expressway via Bulandshahr. This package runs from Bhaipur Brahman in Gautam Buddh Nagar district to Bichaula in Bulandshahr district, chainage km 0.000 to km 24.467, and it is tendered on EPC basis by the U.P. Expressways Industrial Development Authority. The product category on the notice reads Civil Works, Highways, and the form of contract is lump-sum, so the winning bidder prices the whole 24.467 km against a fixed sum rather than against measured quantities.

On value, read the two figures together. The notice carries the estimate in a band above ₹100 crore, and the EMD is set at ₹42,16,00,000, which is exactly 2.00 per cent of ₹2,108.00 crore. The deposit arithmetic and the stated estimate agree to the rupee, so ₹2,108 crore is the number to plan around. The tender fee is ₹59,000, bids stay valid 120 days, and the submission runs in two covers.

One corrigendum has already been issued, revising the venue, link and timing of the pre-bid meeting, and the source document set carries nine corrigendum files against five main documents including highway drawings, structural drawings, the BOQ and the RFP agreement schedules. Anyone bidding should re-open the notice before submission rather than working off a copy downloaded in July.

Who this one is written for

A ₹2,108 crore lump-sum EPC package with a ₹42 crore deposit puts this squarely with national highway contractors who already run UPEIDA and NHAI fronts. UPEIDA’s bid history on comparable work is an open field rather than a two-firm race, with PNC Infratech, Ashoka Buildcon, Kalyan Toll Infrastructure and Dineshchandra R Agrawal Infracon all regular names on this authority’s roads.

For machine owners in western Uttar Pradesh, the number that matters is not the contract value but the 24 km of new alignment sitting between Jewar and Bulandshahr. Greenfield expressway work of this length runs continuous earthwork fronts for two seasons or more, and the hire demand follows the alignment rather than sitting at one yard. Getting on the winner’s approved hire list before mobilisation is worth more than chasing the job after work starts.

Machines a 24 km expressway front pulls in

Expressway construction on this scale runs on bulk earthmoving first. Excavators and dozers open the corridor, a large tipper fleet moves the embankment material, motor graders trim each layer, and vibratory soil compactors do the layered compaction that the specification checks before the next lift goes down. Once the formation holds level, the work shifts to granular sub-base and base laying, then paving.

The structures programme runs alongside. Twenty-four kilometres of link expressway across the Yamuna and Hindon drainage means culverts, minor bridges and grade separators, which brings in batching plants, transit mixers, concrete pumps, piling rigs and heavy cranes for girder work. Backhoe loaders handle the constant service diversion, cable and drainage trenching that goes on for the length of the job.
