The Intauja–Mahona–Kumhraon–Kursi–Deva–Chinhat road (MDR 88C) in Barabanki is being widened from two lanes to four, with two major bridges built along the way, and the UP PWD wants bids in by 30 June 2026.
What the job covers
This is a single package: widen and strengthen roughly 27 km of MDR 88C, from chainage 18.500 to 45.850, and build two major bridges on the same alignment. The PWD has put the estimated cost at ₹301.00 Cr and is running it as an item-wise contract, so you quote rates against a measured BOQ rather than one lump sum.
Earthwork, granular layers, the pavement and two stream crossings all sit inside one award. That makes it a meaty, single-window job for a contractor who can keep road and bridge fronts moving together.
Who this suits
A ₹3.01 Cr EMD and a 27 km four-laning brief tell you the size of contractor the department expects. This is EPC and large civil-works territory, for firms that have done lane addition with major bridge work before.
Own a fleet and usually sub-contract? The bridge sub-structure, earthwork and paving packages here are worth a call to the likely main bidders.
Plant you’ll put on site
Four-laning over 27 km plus two bridges keeps a big spread busy. Earthmovers and graders handle formation and widening, soil compactors and rollers do the layers, and a wet-mix plant with a paver lays the carriageway. For the bridges you’ll want a batching plant, transit mixers and a crane heavy enough to place girders. Keep plenty of tippers running to feed all of it.
