PROJECT INFORMATION AND SCOPE OF WORKS
Project Information of DFC Project
1.0 General
1.1 The Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC) Project
1.1.1 Ministry of Railways (MOR), Government of India has planned to construct a High Axle
Load Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC) covering about 3330 route kilometers on Easternand Western Corridors. The coverage of Eastern Corridor is from Ludhiana to Dankuni
and Western Corridor is planned from Jawaharlal Nehru Port, Mumbai to
Rewari/Tughlakabad/Dadri near Delhi. There will be a linkage between two corridors at
Khurja. The map showing the geographical extent of Freight Corridors is attached as
Annexure-I.
1.1.2 The project entails construction of mostly double-track electrified railway lines. The
bridges and other structures will be designed to allow movement of 32.5 ton axle load
while the track structure will be designed for 25 ton axle load operating at train speed of up
to 100 Kmph. The Eastern Corridor will handle single stack containers whereas Western
Corridor is planned to cater to double stack containers. Up gradation of transportation
technology, increase in productivity and reduction in unit transportation costs have been
taken as guiding principles for formulating the project. Various operating systems, motive
powers, signaling and work processes are required to conform to these broad perspectives.

48/60
4.0 Funding for the Project
4.1 731 Kms out of 1799 Km of Eastern Dedicated Freight Corridor (EDFC) from Mughalsarai
to Khurja is being financed by the World Bank. The route alignment of EDFC indicatingthe corridor length being funded by World Bank is attached as AnnexureII.
5.0 Project Phasing
5.1 The implementation of EDFC in the World Bank funded portion of the project is planned in
a phased manner. In the first phase 343 Kms long stretch between Bhaupur and Khurja
Section shall be constructed (Phase I). The balance stretch of 388 Kms between Bhaupur
and Mughalsarai will be constructed in the second phase (Phase II).
Project Information of PhaseI : Bhaupur-Khurja Section
6.0 Contract Strategy Phase I
6.1 As a result of the detailed evaluation of various contracting options to carry out the work
of constructing the double line electrified track - complete with signaling, communication
and other systems and their evaluation against International and Indian circumstances intodays construction market, it has been decided to implement Phase I of EDFC by slicingthe whole length in to three Design & Build Contracts incorporating civil, structures and
track works contracts and one separate single Project Wide Rail Systems Contract.
6.2 The current Prequalification exercise is to identify suitable Bidders for the three Civil,
Structures and Track Works Contracts designated as Contract 101, Contract 102 and
Contract 103
