Metro Rail to float fresh tender for new coaches
The Hindu
Delay in the construction of Poonamallee depot said to be the reason
Chennai Metro Rail Ltd. (CMRL) has cancelled the tenders floated for manufacturing trains for its Phase II project. This is one more addition to the long list of tenders cancelled by the CMRL.
Last year, CMRL invited bids for providing trains (78 coaches or 26 three-coach trains) to be run on the Poonamallee-Light House line, one of the three corridors of the Phase II project.
Already, six tenders for building underground stations in the Phase II project were cancelled recently and floated again as the bidders submitted an inflated cost. According to CMRL officials, the bids for trains had to be cancelled for “administrative reasons”.
