Six bridges, one contract. MoRTH wants an EPC firm to build three major bridges — over the Kali, Ganga and Ram Ganga rivers — plus three minor ones on NH-730C in Uttar Pradesh. The job is worth about ₹ 480.59 crore and bids close on 10 July 2026. What you would be building. The package puts six structures under a single design-and-build contract. The big three are 2-lane/4-lane bridges at km 3.500 (Kali River), km 39.840 (Ganga River) and km 53.250 (Ram Ganga River). The three minor bridges come at km 31.425, km 31.710 and km 44.665. MoRTH’s Lucknow regional office is running it, and the work is logged at Farrukhabad. Because it is EPC, the design sits on your side too — and so does the quantity risk that comes with it.
Who should bid
This is one for an EPC firm or a serious bridge contractor, not a first-timer. Two of the crossings are on the Ganga and Ram Ganga, which means deep foundations and well or pile work in a live river, with the monsoon watching the calendar. The EMD is ₹ 4.81 crore. You will want real river-bridge jobs behind you and the bid capacity the RFP spells out, so check the turnover and similar-work clauses before you start the file. Kit the job needs. Plan for hydraulic and rotary piling rigs, crawler and hydraulic cranes, well-sinking gear for the river piers, a batching plant, transit mixers, concrete pumps and excavators. You may also need launching girders for the spans. Own a piling rig or a high-capacity crane? You are a natural sub-contract or hire partner for whoever lands this one, because the foundation work runs across three rivers.
