Ceigall Casts Agra Metro AGCC-05’s First Pier Cap
Ceigall India and its subcontractor Dixcon Infra this Thursday began casting pier caps for the viaduct of Package AGCC-05 on 14.25 km Agra Metro Line-1 connecting Taj East Gate – Sikandra.
Package AGCC-05 is a 3.725 km elevated section of 29.40 km Agra Metro Phase 1 project and will link RBS Ramp in Khandari and Sikandra via 3 elevated stations at ISBT, Guru Ka Taal and Sikandra – all located along national highway NH-19 (old NH-2).
By back of hand calculations, I estimate Ceigall will cast 110 pier caps – each with a width of 9.5m and weight of 62T.
Uttar Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation (UPMRC) had awarded Ceigall India with AGCC-05’s Rs. 266.94 crore construction contract in March 2024 with a tight 24 month deadline.
Package AGCC-05 is located on the northern-end of the line and is the third & final package for Line-1 main-line’s construction work. It will be connected to 7.93 km underground Package AGCC-02, and both twin tunnels between the Ramp and RBS College Station were recently completed by Afcons – Sam India Consortium in May.
In the coming months, Ceigall will start casting double-T girders for stations, and I-girders & U-girders for the line’s viaduct at their yard.

Ceigall has been awarded LOA for Bhubaneswar metro BBC-05 recently as many have posted about it on Twitter, so please verify and update that information as well.
That’s correct – they received LOA. Will write about it when I get a copy of it.
