CMRL to award new contract forlaying underground tracks

Chennai Metro Rail is planning to awardfresh contracts for building the Saidapet-LICunderground stretch by the end of this month.

The work on this stretch has been stalledafter the Russian company Mosmetrostroyabandoned work and Metro Rail terminatedthe contract of Gammon-Mosmetrostroy jointventure.

According to a senior official of CMRL, tenderswill be opened on Oct. 19 and contracts will beawarded the same day. Metro Rail will awardtwo contracts, one for building tunnels andunderground stations between GovernmentEstate and Thousand Lights, and the other forthe work between DMS and Saidapet.

The work includes building connecting tunnelsbetween the two parallel tunnels bored betweenSaidapet and DMS, boring two parallel tunnelsfrom DMS to Government Estate andcompleting the remaining work of constructingunderground stations.

The Russian firm in charge of building tunnelshad completed around 90% of its work of buildingtunnels from Saidapet to DMS, leaving only 3km. of tunnels from DMS to GovernmentEstate.

The firm abandoned work after Metro Railrefused its demand for payment of additionalexpenditure of Rs. 100 crore incurred inexecuting the project. As the elevated sectionhas been completed and commissioned exceptfor a small stretch between Alandur and St.Thomas Mount, CMRL is gearing up to open itsfirst underground line in the city fromTirumangalam to Shenoy Nagar.
