IRCON floats tender for rail project
Ircon International has invited online tender for the construction of Melli Yard works including the construction of Bridge No. 10 and No. 11 in connection with Sivok – Rangpo New Broad Gauge Railway Line project entailing an investment of ₹182 crore. The scope of work includes the construction of Melli Yard works covering earthwork in cutting, filling, development of drainage system, slope stabilization, retaining structures, reinforced soil wall system, construction of Bridge No. 10 on pile foundation, Bridge No. 11 and other ancillary works between km. 26.570 to km. 27.540 in connection with the construction line.

Sivok-Rangpo is an under construction 44.96 km long broad gauge railway line connecting Sivok in West Bengal to Rangpo in Sikkim. It will be the first railway connectivity to the State of Sikkim with the rest of India as the project is already delayed due to various reasons and the cost of project has escalated multiple times. The Indian Railways has assigned the contract to IRCON to construct the line and IRCON is carrying out construction work for this project on behalf of Northeast Frontier Railway (NFR). On completion, this railway line will have 5 stations on the route namely – Melli, Teesta Bazaar, Geil Khola, Riang, and Rangpo. The Project will constitute construction of 28 bridges, 14 tunnels with 86% of the route totaling 38.53 km and will pass through the tunnels and the line is expected to become operational by December, 2022.
