Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) has opened bids for the 4.3 km Agardanda Creek Bridge construction project in Raigad District, Maharashtra, India.
In mid-January 2024, the Maharashtra Government's cabinet approved the construction of a two-lane bridge on State Highway SH-4, known as the Revas – Reddi Coastal Highway. This bridge is planned to be erected to the east of Adani Ports & SEZ's Dighi Port project. The project involves building a two-lane bridge across Agardanda Creek with approaches connecting Tokekhar Tq Murud and Turumbadi Tq Mhasala in Raigad District on the Revas-Redi Coastal Highway.
The technical bids were opened, revealing two contenders – Afcons Infrastructure and Hindustan Construction Company (HCC). HCC emerged as the lowest bidder for civil construction between Tokekhar and Turumbadi villages. However, HCC's bid of INR 11.8 billion (US$ 143 million) was 46.65% higher than MSRDC's estimated cost of INR 8 billion (US$ 97 million).
