6854. Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Ltd
Kerala, India

5801 It has been a long time coming. Almost a decade-and-a-half after first demanding a railway overbridge (ROB), the residents of Pachalam will, finally, get to see work on their dream project get underway on Monday as the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) commences work. Though the Southern Railway had sanctioned the Pachalam ROB in 1999-2000, it took more than a decade for the state government to take up the project. According to DMRC, the project was delayed due to problems involved in land acquisition. Following popular agitations, the Metro authority was given the task of executing the project as part of Kochi Metro's preparatory works. The detailed project report (DPR), prepared by DMRC, was submitted by the Kochi Metro Rail Ltd (KMRL) for the approval of state government. The two-lane ROB, envisaged by DMRC, requires a minimum land acquisition of 46 cents. The project is estimated to cost Rs 52 crore. "The railway will share 50% of the cost. This excludes the amount required for land acquisition," said a DMRC spokesperson. The Pachalam level crossing is considered one of the busiest between Shoranur Junction and Ernakulam Junction. As per data, as many as 3,85,563 train vehicle units (103 trains) pass through this level crossing. Around 4,773 vehicles, excluding two-wheelers, also take the Pachalam level cross. Though DMRC's principal adviser E Sreedharan had agreed to complete the project in 180 days, the Metro agency will be able to stick to the schedule only if the district administration completes the land acquisition on time. "The Metro authority will be able to start work on the Chittoor side of the ROB without waiting for land acquisition. But if they start work on the Kacherippady side, land acquisition will have to be completed," said a senior officer associated with the project. DMRC will require about 320 sq m of land on Chittoor side and 726 square meters of land on the Kacherippady side. If land acquisition is not competed on time, Metro agencies will be forced to compensate the contractor. Funds should also be made available for the timely completion of the project. The state government has to also issue an order authorizing DMRC. As of now, there has been a cabinet decision, according administrative sanction for the project. If DMRC is to stick to its schedule, the city police will also have to agree to close Chittoor Road and divert traffic.

6871. RDS Project Ltd
Kerala, India

5784 The state government has given administrative sanction for projects such as Pachalam railway overbridge (ROB) and three flyovers on the Edappally-Aroor bypass, the Palarivattom flyover will be the first off the mark. The Roads and Bridges Corporation-Kerala (RBDC-K) has already entrusted the construction of the flyover to a private company - RDS Project Ltd - within days of receiving the sanction. "The tenders have been finalized. Since the state government has given the go ahead, there is no need to obtain government concurrence to finalize tenders," said a senior RBDC-K official. The 620-metre flyover is coming up at the Palarivattom signal junction on National Highway 47. Though the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) had mooted a six-lane flyover, the plan was dropped as it would require a large area to be acquired. The project is expected to cost Rs 72.6 crore, including Rs 47.7 crore for construction and Rs 24.9 crore for land acquisition. The flyover requires 54 cents on four corners for the construction of service roads. RBDC-K plans to commission the flyover within 18 months of starting work. Though the agency can start work without waiting to complete land acquisition, if the government insists on finishing it first, "there would be delay in project implementation". According to officials, the agency could also opt for the method adopted by the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) for constructing the viaduct and use precast girders and pier caps made at casting yards. This will help to save time and keep traffic disruptions on roads to a minimum. They also pointed out that the progress of the work would largely depend on imposing traffic regulations on the stretch. Meanwhile, work on Pachalam ROB is likely to begin soon. The government has already decided to assign the work to DMRC so that it would be executed expeditiously.

Maharashtra, India

5776 With Singapore’s PSA finally being awarded the project for developing India’s largest container terminal at Jawaharlal Nehru Port (JNPT), this afternoon, all apprehensions have finally been laid to rest. PSA was awarded the project nearly two years ago after the consortium that included its Indian partner ABG offered a record royalty of 50.8 % revenue share. PSA however did not sign the concession, citing technicalities. JNPT had to call for global bids all over again. According to sources the port was under pressure to blacklist PSA. But port officials felt such a move could end up in controversies and delay the project in the process. Accordingly, this 4th Container Terminal with a quay length of 2000 mtrs and a capacity of 4.8 million TEUs per annum to be developed at an estimated project cost of $ 1.3 billion was bid out by the JNPT through a global tender notice issued on 5th June 2013. In response, eight bidders submitted their Request for Qualification (RFQ), out of which RFP was issued to seven qualified bidders in the month of Dec. 2013. On 20th Feb. 2014, two bidders, viz. M/s PSA Bharat Investments Pte. Ltd. and M/s Adani Port & SEZ Limited in consortium with Terminal Investments Ltd., SA, submitted their price bids and the same were opened on 20th Feb. 2014 itself. At the meeting of the Board of Trustees of JNPT, held this afternoon it was decided to issue the “Letter of Award” (LOA) for undertaking the project of development of the Container Terminal on Design, Build, Finance, Operate and Transfer (DBFOT) basis to M/s PSA Investments Pte. Ltd. being the highest bidder and who had quoted the highest percentage of revenue share of 35.79%. Accordingly the LOA has been issued. PSA now gets 30 days to sign the Concession Agreement. This is the second time that PSA is being issued the LOA for same project at JNPT. According to sources this is the largest port project involving 100% foreign direct investment. When completed, this will add nearly 5 million TEUs to the port’s throughput, which currently stands at 4.26 million TEUs (2012-13). JNPT which is the country’s foremost container port has three container terminals. These are JNPCT that handled 1.21 million TEUs, NSICT (DP World) 1.04 million TEUs, and GTICT (APM Terminals) 2.01 million TEUs.

5772 Satarem India has launched an integrated municipal solid waste management project with Bangalore Mahanagar Palike (BBMP) on public-private partnership basis. The solid waste project includes segregation, compost and power generation in completely closed environment. “For waste to energy, Satarem has adopted co-combustion technology, a technology which achieves near to zero dioxin and furan levels using our patented Dual Purpose Reactor (DPR) technology. Bi-product of this technology, bottom ash is used in making construction materials like paver blocks and cement bricks,” said Jerome Friler, Chairman of Satarem AG. Revenue streams of this project could come mainly from power generation, tipping fees, sale of compost and other recyclables. Venkatesh Sivaraman, Executive Director, Satarem India, said, “The waste facility is to be taken up in three phases. Phase I includes waste receipt, segregation, compost and landfill facility. Waste to Energy will be taken up in phase II with 14.5 MW capacity of installed power generation. Additional installed power generation capacity of 14.5 MW will be taken up in Phase III.” The statutory licenses/approvals have been obtained required for the project to start construction activities of phase I & II. “Total estimated project cost is around Rs 300 crores and financial closure is under final stages with 80 per cent committed and balances 20 per cent under discussion,” said Sivaraman. This concept of co-combustion with low emissions and the standards approved by Europe is now implemented throughout the world. There are more than 450 such WTE projects in the world and more than 60 such plants in China, Thailand and Turkey, waste in these countries is similar to our Indian waste. This concept has been encouraged by most municipalities and city corporations, explained Friler.

The Mangalore Railway Development Action Committee while welcoming a move to execute multi-state tunnel through the Western Ghats for road connectivity, has urged the Union railway ministry to join this project as well. The Japan International Cooperation Agency is going to execute the multi-stage tunnel measuring 18.5 kilometres through Shiradi Ghat on the NH between Bangalore and Mangalore at a cost of Rs. 4,800 crore.

This project will be funded both by the Central and state governments. The Committee headed by its convener P V Mohan that met Mallikarjun Kharge, union minister for railways here on Sunday said it is prudent that Indian Railways also join this unusual project, a product of the wisdom of both the government, into an innovative one by including railway line also into the tunnel construction. This will ameliorate traveling suffering of thousands of people.

Appeal to the Kharge to do the needful for including railway line also into the Western Ghats multi-stage tunnel project, Mohan said such an initiative will not only be a highly innovative project which will become a model for other states but also help in developing infrastructural facilities for the districts in the southern states. The committee drew his attention to similar projects executed elsewhere in the world successfully too and are therefore viable.

There have been such projects executed in Australia, Denmark, Germany and Russia. Undoubtedly, the Japan International Cooperation Agency will have the necessary know-how and technology for executing the project, Mohan said, adding it is important that the already existing railway line between Bangalore and Mangalore which started after lot of persuasion by the locals is minimum facility catering to only 10% of the needs of the traveling public.
