Two accident black spots on the Bilaspur to Pathrapali section of NH-130 are to be rebuilt with underpasses and junction improvements for ₹44.81 crore, and the NH-130 black spot tender closes at 11:00 AM on 7 December 2026.
Long-term measures, not road markings
NHAI has identified two black spots flagged by the ministry between km 0.000 and km 53.300 of the Bilaspur Pathrapali section. The notice asks for long-term rectification measures, which it spells out as construction of underpasses, junction improvements and other works, rather than the signage and marking approach used for short-term fixes. The Regional Office at Raipur issues it, reference 11052/RO-RPR/B-P/BLACKSPOTS (LTM), on EPC with 365 days.
The number of structures is small but each one sits on a live highway. Grade separation at a busy junction means traffic diversions, utility shifting and a box pushed or cast under the carriageway while vehicles keep moving over it.
A compact EPC package
The estimate is ₹44,81,00,000 with EMD of ₹44,81,000, exactly 1 per cent, and a fee of ₹10,000. Bids open at 03:30 PM on 8 December. At this size NHAI usually sees mid-size regional contractors rather than national firms, and a year is enough time if the underpass work is planned around the dry season.
Underpass work is structure work. You need a piling or boring rig, a crane for cages, box segments and girders, transit mixers for continuous pours, and excavators for the open cut. Junction improvement adds pavement and kerb work for a compactor and a motor grader, while backhoe loaders run the diversions and drains day to day. Raipur and Bilaspur both have hire markets for this gear, so a contractor without its own piling rig can still bid.
