By Arun Kumar Das
New Delhi, Sep 6 (BVI): The proposed Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train section will have plazas at two stations — Vadodara and Anand.
For development of these plazas, the National High Speed Rail Corporation Limited (NHSRCL) has floated a tender inviting bids for the design, construction, testing, and commissioning of works linked to multi-modal integration (MMI).
The scope of the work includes the civil, mechanical, electrical, and ancillary works at the stations and construction of an underpass at Channi Road in Vadodara.
The project will follow a Design-Build Lump Sum Price model, requiring the contractor to manage both design and execution.
Only Indian companies are eligible to participate, with bidders required to demonstrate prior experience in similar projects.
The tender will be conducted through a single-stage, two-envelope bidding process, comprising technical and financial evaluations.
The pre-bid meeting will be held for bidders on September 23, 2025 and the technical bid will open on November 14, 2025.
The integration and station development works are expected to enhance last-mile connectivity, ease passenger flow, and provide modern infrastructure at two important stations on the country’s first high-speed rail corridor.
The Mumbai-Ahmedabad High Speed Rail project, popularly known as the “Bullet Train Project,” aims to revolutionize passenger travel in India with trains running at speeds up to 320 km/h between Mumbai and Ahmedabad. (BVI)
