The contract鈥檚 scope involves the system installations at eight of the ten underground stations on Line 4, including Light House, Kutchery Road, Alwarpet, Bharatidasan Road, Boat Club, Nandanam, Panagal Park, Kodambakkam
These stations are currently under construction by ITD Cementation India, as part of packages UG-01 (5.15 km) and UG-02 (4.87 km), which were awarded to ITD Cementation in January 2022.
