Lahore: The Lahore Development Authority (LDA) on Saturday (November 13) opened tender bids for two road infrastructure projects in Lahore, news sources reported. The two projects include the dualisation of Burki Road and the construction of roads on both sides of Babu Sabu Interchange.
As per the report, three firms competed for the PKR 240 million Babu Sabu project, with Yasin & Brothers firm winning the tender by bidding 1% less than the anticipated value. Similarly, Highways Construction won the tender for the PKR 400 million Burki Road dualisation project by offering 1% less for the project. Both projects were given a six-month deadline in exchange for the delivery of cash.
It is important to mention here that LDA invited prequalification bids in September for the dualisation of Burki Road from the Lahore School of Economics (LSE) to the BRB, as well as the construction of roads on both sides of the Babu Sabu interchange. On November 2, seven firms initially qualified for the PKR 400 million Burki Road infrastructure project, and four firms qualified for the PKR 242.7 million Babu Sabu Road development project. Now with the award of the tender to the firms, the project is expected to be completed in the coming 6 months.
