Contract for Nagpur Metro phase 2 viaduct package C-01 awarded to RVNL

Last week, it was announced by Rail Vikas Nigam (RVNL) in a regulatory filing that they had been declared as the lowest bidder for Package C-01 in Reach 2A of Nagpur Metro's Phase 2 project, which spans a distance of 6.92 kilometres. The 13-kilometre-long elevated Reach 2A will establish a connection between Nagpur Metro's Orange Line, measuring 19.658 kilometres and completed during Phase 1, and the Kanhan River.
