en.Wedoany.com Reported - BCPL Railway Infrastructure Limited has secured two contracts worth a total of ₹93.4 million from Eastern Railway for overhead equipment (OHE) infrastructure upgrade, covering the replacement of old mast assemblies in the Howrah Division and electrical works related to platform extensions in the Sealdah Division.

The first contract, valued at ₹47.2 million, involves 25 kV OHE works for replacing old mast assemblies in the Howrah Division. Mast assemblies are critical for supporting the OHE structure and maintaining the stability of the electrification network. Due to prolonged wear and environmental stress, they require periodic replacement to ensure the safety and continuity of railway operations. The project has an execution period of 18 months and will systematically modernize the existing infrastructure while minimizing operational disruptions.

The second contract, valued at ₹46.2 million, has been awarded by Eastern Railway to BCPL Railway Infrastructure for the design, drawing, supply, and erection of 25 kV OHE and associated electrical works related to platform extensions in the Sealdah Division. This contract involves modifying the existing OHE infrastructure at DEB, BEB, BPC, BP, and NH stations affected by platform extensions, to accommodate longer train formations and enhance passenger capacity. The planned execution period is 12 months.

These two projects are expected to enhance the reliability and safety of Eastern Railway's electrification network, support station modernization and capacity enhancement plans, and contribute to smoother train operations and higher service efficiency on busy railway sections in India.
