26 Bidders for Delhi Dehradun Expressway PH2’s Packages 1 & 4

26 firms have submitted a total of 43 bids to construct civil packages 1 and 4 of the 210 km Delhi – Dehradun Expressway‘s 119 km Phase 2 (EPE – Saharanpur) section after National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) opened technical bids today.

This 6 lane greenfield expressway will be developed in 4 phases. Financial bids for its 32 km Phase 1 (Akshardham in Delhi to Eastern Peripheral Expressway) were opened in December 2020 to reveal Gammon India and Gayatri Projects as the lowest bidders for its two packages. I haven’t heard or read about ground work having started yet.

Its 119 km Phase 2 lies within Uttar Pradesh and connects the Eastern Peripheral Expressway near Baghpat with Latifpur village at the Saharanpur Bypass through 4 civil packages ranging from 25.5 to 37 kms.

NHAI had invited bids for all 4 packages in January – each with a 2 year construction deadline. Earlier this month, 27 bidders submitted 49 bids to build Packages 2 & 3.
