Bids Invited for Indore Metro’s Super Corridor Route
Madhya Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation (MPMRC) on Wednesday invited tenders (bids) for the construction of Indore Metro’s 10.927 km MR10 Road Station – Gandhi Nagar Station section with 9 elevated stations on ‘Super Corridor’ road.
Package IN-03 is Indore Metro’s second notice in the past fortnight (other was IN-02 for 7 stations between ISBT/MR10 Flyover and Radisson Square), and the very first integrated package with both viaduct & station work.
MPMRC now interestingly refers to Line-3 as Indore Metro’s Yellow Line. This line of the Phase 1 project will form a ring around the city and connect Palasia – Railway Station – Rajwara – Airport – Bhawarsala via 30 elevated stations.
Tender No: 273/MPMRCL/2021/Package IN-03
Package: IN-03
- Estimated Cost: Rs. 1000 crore
- Deadline / Completion Period: 847 days (2.32 years)
- Pre-Bid Meeting: March 31, 2021 at 11 am
- Bid Submission End Date: April 30 2021 at 4 PM
- Technical Bid Opening Date: May 1 at 4:30 PM

The 9 stations will be located at Gandhi Nagar, Super Corridor 6, Super Corridor 5, Super Corridor 4, Super Corridor 3, Super Corridor 2 and Super Corridor 1, Bhawarsala Square and MR 10 Road. Scope also includes constructing a roughly 575m depot-line.
Per the notice, this package will be funded through equity contribution of Government of India (GoI) and Government of Madhya Pradesh (GoMP), and not by ADB – the chief lender of the project.
Things on this project – at least on the tendering front – are now finally moving along. Prior to recent developments, tendering had been on-hold for over 31 months since the 1st notice, for a 5.29 km viaduct, came out in 2018 and was won by Dilip Buildcon.

what is so ‘super’ about this corridor?
The road on which the metro will be built is named Super Corridor
Super Corridor is a kind of Bypass along the west of Indore City
Just a cringey label added to enhance its image. Similar to Mumbai – Nagpur’s “super communication” expressway.
It’s a one of a kind road (and RE development) in the region and totally deserve a nice distinct name. But just not the current one.
Rewa’s solar plant is called Rewa Ultra Mega Solar Power Project. It must be a MP thing to give such names 😀
Ultra Mega Power Projects (UMPP) is an ‘Indian thing’…

…no where else in the world you will find UMPPs, except in India..:):)
It’s just a name
It was started years ago
It was made of thinking large investment, helping indore’s economy and MP’s also
but only the main road was made
But 1.5 years back TCS and Infosys set up a their park on super corridor and now some more companies are also investing
Residential area buildings appartments are under-construction
It was given super corridor bcz it was supposed to boost the economy
It’s good that now mpmrcl is floating tenders fast
Even if dilip buildcon 5.29 km viaduct is not completed we can think of super corridor to railway station or even Mumtaz bagh
This tender 3 will take time bcz super corridor divider is made by greenery
And also it’s the longest part
The next tender will be may be Underground bcz from airport almost 1km from depot to Rajwada is underground
But let’s hope for the best
Mpmrcl focusing on indore bcz in bhopal the work is goingon great speed but in indore not even a pillar casted
Will make a video when work will start 😃😃
This is SKDalai working in Mumbai metro line 3 corridor, in ugc1 as SRE tunnel. I’m eagerly waiting for the understand package in indore or bhopal to start….do let me know if any news comes in.
Regards
ok
Maybe I am missing something, but this metro seems to be avoiding the densely populated areas. So how is it useful?
Yep you are missing
This is just some tenders of indore metro
This line 3 or yellow line is 33.5 km long which goes through Rajwada , sarafa , airport , railway station, under-construction ISBT, ring road which are always full
Hey man, Do you have any YouTube channel or something chronicling the project’s progress ?
I have a yt account but only one video posted in January
I just watch videos on youtube
My some yt friends were telling me to make a video on indore metro updates
So I made one
I can give you the link
Why they are not issuing tenders for bhopal. Only focussing on indore
The company working In both indore nd bhopal metro tender 1
I.e. dilip buildcon is just working in bhopal and not even concreted a pilllar till now in Indore
Dbl is just focusing on bhopal and also has completed 150+ pillars and 30 span
And not even workin on indore
If this was continued then indore may not get metro and bhopal will
So now mpmrcl is focusing on indore more than bhopal
So that they could give metro both to Bhopal and Indore
Even if the dbl 5.29 km is not completed in Indore then the other parts will be completed
Bhopal me pehle hi acchi speed pr kaam chal raha hai viaduct pr almost pillars ka kam ho gya hAi
abhi udhar 30-35 pillrs pr girders bhi launch kr diye hai
where is the tender listed. Did not find on MP metro website or Central procurement website or DMRC
Even I didn’t find it on mpmrcl website
May be they are not posting tenders on website bcz some days ago when I search mpmrcl on Google below mpmrcl website it was showing this website may be hacked
Or they are not posting tenders intentionally
@TMRG – Where we can see these tenders?
They’re on the government’s eTender site: https://etenders.gov.in/
is metro going to run on one side of super corridor or somewhere in the green fields parallel to super corridor?
Will primarily use the road’s median
