M-6 - Sukkur - Hyderabad Motorway

[RealNapster]

This new regime like to run commercial operations like PIA, steel mill but not willing to operate Motorway?

So this private investor will have his surveillance on M6 which he can sell to potential buyers!

You must be retard who is objecting to BOT. You and your ganja leader have the idiotic believe that such projects should be built by taking loans from international banks while keeping country airports etc as hostage.

What’s their track record (on budget and one time) on similar projects ?

Yes. It's a big name. More than Habib construction. ZKB was even part of Hazara motorway. They had 18 km section and along bridge. On time and in-budget

Techno Consortium, quoted the lowest bid for the Sukkur Hyderabad Motorway project (M-6).

The financial bid was participated by Techno-CMC-ACC consortium which scored 98.43/100 marks and another bidder ZKB which secured 25.28/100 marks.

According to sources, Techno Consortium consists of two local firms, Techno and ACC and an Italian construction company called Cooperativa Muratori e Cementisti (CMC) di Ravenna which was earlier declared as disqualified by an evaluation committee of NHA. The consortium is now likely to build the Sukkur-Hyderabad Motorway project on a Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) basis.

Only two bidders had submitted their proposals and expressed interests for the construction of Sukkur-Hyderabad Motorway project. However, an evaluation committee of National Highway Authority (NHA) had declared the consortium as disqualified. The consortium later approached the GRC which announced its decision regarding the technical qualification of the consortium on Thursday.

According to sources capital Viability Gap Fund (VGF) of Rs143 billion and operational VGF amounting to Rs49 billion at Rs7 billion per year for a period of 7-years was authorised in the approved PC-I of M-6 project .

According to sources, ZKB in its financial bid had quoted Rs37 billion as capital VGF during construction and Rs143 billion as operational VGF. Similarly, Techno Consortium had quoted Rs9.5 billion capital VGF during construction while the consortium did not claim a single rupee as operational VGF which will lead to direct saving of Rs170.5 billion to the national exchequer.

According to sources NHA’s share as quoted by ZKB for a period of 22 years is Rs139 billion with a Net Present Value (NPV) of approximately Rs25 billion while the project cost as quoted by ZKB stood at Rs275 billion.

However, on the other hand, Techno consortium had quoted a Rs407 billion share for NHA for a period of 22 years with a NPV of Rs73.58 billion. The total cost of the project in this case will be Rs307 billion.

M-6 seems to have become a CPEC project. Does that indicate it will be build as rapidly as the M-5 (Multan to Sukkur) motorway was built? Any indication how much the cost of shipping goods will decrease once the final leg of the Peshawar-Karachi Motorway is completed with the completion of the M-6?

With the new government, let’s see if there is any cost inflation from what was being mentioned just a couple months ago.

Prime Minister Muhammad Shahbaz Sharif on Thursday directed authorities concerned to immediately start construction work on Sukkur Hyderabad Motorway project.

The premier issued directives while chairing a review meeting on the progress of ongoing construction projects of National Highway Authority (NHA).

Earlier, the Sindh High Court, Sukkur bench, reprimanded National Highway Authority (NHA) officials over delays in the construction of the Sukkur-Hyderabad motorway.

A two-member bench, comprising Justice Amjad Ali Sahito and Justice Shamsuddin Abbasi, was hearing the plea over frequent delays in the construction of Sukkur-Hyderabad motorway and routine accidents on Jamshoro-Sehwan road.
