28 Nov 2022 CW Team

The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) issued a new invitation to bid for the Mogharpada Depot on the Mumbai Metro Green Line in late October (Package CA-160).

This brand-new train repair facility will aid in the upkeep of the 35.2 km Line-4 and Line-4A, which will connect Wadala, Kasaravadavali, and Gaimukh via 34 stops.

The first tender notice was issued in August 2020, with a 36-month deadline and a construction cost of Rs. 5.96 billion estimated. However, prior to the tender's cancellation in May 2021, MMRDA extended the submission deadline numerous times with 14 corrigenda.

According to the revised tender documents, the depot's layout has changed significantly, and its footprint has shrunk from 41 to 35 hectare. While the contract term remains unchanged at 36 months, the estimated cost has risen to Rs. 7.11 billion.
