📋 Tender Overview
Scope :
The Jamshedpur- Purulia- Asansol 3rd Line project is a crucial enhancement to the railway network connecting West Bengal and Jharkhand, spanning 121 kilometers with an estimated cost of Rs. 2170 crore. This multi-tracking initiative will significantly improve the movement of passengers, goods, and services, ensuring smoother and more efficient transport across the region. The project strengthens connectivity between major trunk routes, notably the Delhi-Howrah and Howrah-Mumbai corridors, which will enhance the transportation of iron ore and coal to steel plants in Burnpur and Durgapur and also for the movement of finished steel products. Additionally, the project is strategically located near key tourist attractions like Maithan Dam and Churulia, as well as pilgrimage centers such as Kalyaneswari Temple and Ghagar Buri Chandi Temple. The construction of this line is expected to generate 42 lakh man-days of employment and will contribute to environmental sustainability by saving 74 crore kilograms of CO2 emissions, equivalent to planting 3 crore trees.
