NHAI invites bids for a part of Vadodara-Mumbai expressway

The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has floated a tender for developing a part of the Vadodara-Mumbai eight-lane access-controlled highway.

The work field includes constructing an eight-lane access-controlled expressway from 69.800 km to 79.783 km (Bhoj to Morbe Section-SPUR of Vadodara-Mumbai Expressway) in Maharashtra hybrid annuity mode under Bharatmala Pariyojana (Phase-II Package-XVII). The project is worth Rs 1,693.93 crore.

Despite the challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic, NHAI has been working at a fast pace. In the previous fiscal, NHAI constructed a record 4,192 km, above from 3,979 km constructed in 2019-20, and 3,380 km in 2018-19.

Even after the lockdown restrictions decreased in the second half, NHAI did a great job managing traffic, construction and taking on higher projects.

As we have reported earlier, NHAI has set a target to build new highways with a combined length of 4,600 km in the current fiscal year, despite the pandemic still wreaking havoc on the nation and its economy.

The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has a vigorous stream of funds, including borrowings, budgetary outlays, and the funds realised through the toll-operate-transfer (TOT) route. NHAI believes that they could meet the target if they rely on EPC projects and HAM projects, though the current target appears high.

Creativity is for Humans, Productivity is for Robots!

On most construction sites, the rhythm of progress is measured by the clang of steel, the hum of machinery and the sweat of thousands. But increasingly, new sounds are entering the mix: the quiet efficiency of algorithms, the hum of drones overhead, and the precision of robotic arms at work. Behind the concrete and cables, an invisible force is taking hold: data. It is turning blueprints into living simulations, managing fleets of machines, and helping engineers make decisions before a single brick is laid. This is not the construction of tomorrow; it is the architecture of today – built on ..
