The Border Roads Organisation has put 81.686 km of brand new hill road in Arunachal Pradesh out to bid at Rs 664.91 crore, and the Tapa Karu road tender closes at 06:00 PM on 15 December 2026.
A fresh alignment from zero to km 81.686
The work is the Tapa Karu Sering Bagan road on a new alignment from km 0.000 to km 81.686, built to national highway single lane specification. It sits in the area of responsibility of 85 RCC under 756 BRTF, in Project Arunank, and the inviting authority is the Additional Director General Border Roads (East) at Guwahati under reference ADGBR (E)/NIB/04/2026-27.
At 81.686 km this is one of the longest single BRO road packages on the portal this month. The portal allows 1,277 days, which works out to roughly three and a half years, and that period is realistic rather than generous once you count the monsoon months when nothing moves.
Who BRO expects to bid
The deposit is Rs 6,65,00,000 against a stated value of Rs 6,64,91,00,000, almost exactly 1 per cent, with no exemption. The fee is Rs 70,000 and bids open at 10:00 AM on 17 December. A greenfield alignment means the winner builds its own access first, carries fuel and spares in, and runs a camp with its own workshop.
Formation cutting decides whether this job runs to time. Plan for excavators fitted with rock breakers, drill rigs where blasting is permitted, dozers to push spoil and a tipper fleet sized for long one-way leads to approved dumps. Retaining and breast walls along the hillside draw steady concrete from mixers set up in stages along the route, and bridges need a crane. Pavement layers, with a motor grader and compactors, come in the third year for most reaches. Machines going this far from a dealer should be recent and carry spare hoses, filters and undercarriage parts.
