NHAI has invited ₹123.55 crore bids for grade separators at Rabarika Chowkdi on the Kutiyana bypass, a vehicular underpass near Kutiyana and 2.20 km of service road on the Porbandar to Jetpur section of NH-27 in Gujarat, closing 17 September 2026.
Junction work on the Porbandar corridor
The package is structures work rather than a length of new road. It covers grade separators at Rabarika Chowkdi on the Kutiyana bypass near Mal Choliyana village, a vehicular underpass near Kutiyana village, and a standalone service road of 2.20 km, all on the Porbandar to Jetpur stretch of NH-27 in Saurashtra.
Jobs like this exist because a highway that runs well between towns still chokes where a village road crosses it. Separating those movements removes the conflict points, and the service road gives local traffic somewhere to go that is not the main carriageway. The work sits inside a live corridor, so staging and diversions matter from day one.
Who should look at it
At ₹123.55 crore this is comfortably within reach of regional contractors who build bridges and structures, and it does not demand the balance sheet a full corridor package would. The EMD is ₹1,24,00,000, close to one per cent of the estimate, and the tender document costs ₹20,000. The contract is item rate over two covers with 120 days of bid validity.
The bidder list on work of this type in Gujarat is usually thick with firms that specialise in flyovers and underpasses, so pricing tends to be sharp. Three corrigenda have already extended the due date since the tender came out in February 2026. Check the latest one before you build your rates.
Machines a grade separator job needs
Structures work has a different fleet profile from earthwork-led highway contracts. The critical items are foundation and lifting: piling rigs for the substructure, then cranes sized for pier caps and girder placement, since the launching sequence usually drives the whole programme.
Around that you need excavators for foundation pits and the underpass box, concrete mixers and pumps feeding a steady pour cycle, and compactors plus a motor grader for the service road and approach embankments. Batching capacity near site is usually the deciding factor on whether the deck pours stay on schedule.
