L&T Awarded Agra Metro Line-2’s AGCC-07 Construction Contract

Larsen & Toubro (L&T) was today awarded a Rs. 1242.79 crore contract for the civil construction of Agra Metro Phase 1 project’s 15.09 km Line-2 which will connect Agra Cantonment – Kalindi Vihar via 14 elevated stations.

This exciting development comes less than a month after Larsen & Toubro was declared as the lowest bidder by Uttar Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation (UPMRC) for Line-2’s construction which will be executed under one mega package AGCC-07.

Package AGCC-07’s scope includes the construction of the entire line’s viaduct, 14 elevated stations, 530m viaduct to Line-2’s Kalindi Vihar Depot, and interestingly a 2.61 km viaduct from north of Sadar Bazar metro station to Line-1’s PAC Depot built by Lisha Engineers as part of Package AGCC-03.

Final Contract Value: Rs. 1242,79,39,608.00 (including taxes & excluding GST)

UPMRC’s notice of award

UPMRC had invited bids for AGCC-07’s construction in December 2023 with a Rs. 1529.29 crore estimate and tight 24 month deadline. Technical bids were opened in March 2024 to reveal 6 bidders, and bid evaluation was completed in early August week to reveal 4 bidders had qualified in the technical round.

Financial bids of those 4 bidders were opened in mid-August to reveal L&T as the lowest bidder – see bid values.

UPMRC’s Brief Scope: Design and Construction of Main Line Elevated Viaduct from Agra Cantt. Metro Station to Kalindi Vihar Metro Station [Chainage (-77m) to 15016m] including Viaduct Connection with Ramp (Chainage 0.00m to 2610m) from (nearby) Sadar Bazar Metro Station to existing Corridor-1 Depot at PAC ground & Corridor-2 Depot Entry/Exit lines Viaduct with Ramp (Chainage 0.00m to 530m) and 14 nos. of Elevated Stations i.e., Agra Cantt, Sadar Bazar, Pratap Pura, Collectorate, Agra College, Hariparvat Chauraha, Sanjay Place, M.G. Road, Sultanganj crossing, Kamla Nagar, Ram Bagh, Foundary Nagar, Agra Mandi & Kalindi Vihar metro stations including Civil, Associated Ancillary Structures, Architectural Finishes, Water Supply, Sanitary Installation, Drainage, External Development, Fire Fighting, Fire Detection, E&M works and PEB structures in Corridor-2 of Agra Metro at Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India

At Agra College Station users will be able to interchange and switch over to the city’s 14.25 km Line-1 (Sikandra – Taj East Gate) where an underground station is under construction by Afcons – SAM India JV as part of Package AGCC-02.

As shared in the past, the award of this contract marks the re-entry of L&T back into elevated metro projects’ construction in north India as all their ongoing projects deal with underground tunneling work – such as Delhi Metro Phase 4’s DC-09 and Patna Metro Phase 1’s PC-03 & PC-08R. Elsewhere in India, their ongoing elevated projects include building Chennai Metro Phase 2’s EV-01 on Line-3, ECV-01 on lines 4 & 5, and ECV-02 & EV-03 on Line-5.

With this development, I expect basic pre-construction ground work for Line-2 to begin by the end of October and full-fledged construction work to start in Q1 2025.

Line-2’s construction via AGCC-07 will be financed by the European Investment Bank (EIB) through a €450 million loan. See a list of all Agra Metro Phase 1 packages (civil & systems) and their status over here.
