Western Railway is building rail flyovers at three bridge locations under its Ahmedabad construction wing, a ₹196.46 Cr package with bids closing on IREPS on 7 August 2026.
Rail flyovers are grade separators that lift one railway line clear of another, and they are among the heaviest structural jobs a railway construction organisation puts out. This one bundles three of them into a single contract.
What the contract covers
The Chief Administrative Officer (Construction), Engineering, Ahmedabad, Western Railway has invited open tender bids for the construction of rail flyovers at bridge no. 19 (one span of 91.40 m), bridge no. 46 (one span of 106.7 m plus one of 45.7 m) and bridge no. 52, along with the associated works listed in the tender document. Estimated value is ₹196.46 Cr and the contract runs on a works basis. Long-span steel or composite girders of this size mean the launching sequence, not the concrete quantity, usually decides the programme.
Is this bid your size
At close to ₹200 Cr across three structures, this suits an established heavy-civil or railway bridge contractor with launched-girder experience and the balance sheet to carry a ₹3,92,93,000 earnest money deposit. There is no tender fee. Smaller machine owners are not shut out either: flyover work of this length runs for years and sub-contracts a steady flow of crane, piling and earthmoving hire around the main contractor.
Plant this job will keep busy
Expect piling rigs and heavy cranes on the foundations and girder erection, excavators and compactors on the approach embankments and cut sections, and a reliable concrete train for pier caps, deck slabs and abutments. Work happens next to running track, so lifting is tied to traffic blocks. Machines that start when the block opens are worth more here than machines with a bigger book capacity.
