Three bypassed stretches of NH-340B between Somayajulapalli and Dhone — about 13.5 km in Kurnool district — are due for a one-time improvement, and MoRTH will take EPC bids until 1 August 2026.
When a new alignment bypasses old national-highway stretches, the bypassed road still carries local traffic and gets one funded round of repair before handover. That is this tender: km 0.000–0.664, km 11.000–19.800 and km 48.600–52.500 of the Somayajulapalli–Dhone section of NH-340B in Andhra Pradesh, valued at Rs 71.67 Cr on EPC terms under the Superintending Engineer, RnB NH Circle, Ananthapuramu.
This is bread-and-butter road plant. Milling where the profile needs correction, motor graders and compactors on the base courses, a paving set for the bituminous layers, and tippers feeding all of it. Culvert and drain repairs pull in excavators and small concrete kit. For owners around Kurnool, Nandyal and Anantapur, it’s dependable hire work with a state-highway rhythm rather than expressway pressure — and a 13.5 km scope keeps a modest fleet occupied through the season.
The EMD stands at Rs 71,66,704 with an Rs 11,800 tender fee. The notice published on 1 July 2026; bids close on 1 August and open on 3 August in Ananthapuramu. Two covers, 120-day bid validity, and withdrawal is allowed.
