Bids invited for flyover at Garkhal junction

A year after a crucial flyover project was conceived over Garkhal junction near Kasauli, where five roads converge, tenders have been invited for the Rs 22 crore flyover by the executing agency.

The PWD’s Road and Infrastructure Develop Corporation (RIDC), which was executing the project, had entrusted the task of conducting a survey of the area to Larsen and Toubro (L&T) in June 2022. An estimate of Rs 27 crore was initially prepared for this flyover but the amount was later reduced to Rs 22 crore. A sum of Rs 14 crore has already been received by the RIDC to invite tenders.
