Odisha ropes in DMRC for Rs. 6,255-cr Phase-I project
The Odisha government has appointed DMRC as the key consultant for the Rs. 6,255 crore Phase-I part of the Bhubaneswar metro rail project, starting from the airport to Trishulia Square in the Cuttack district. An agreement was formalized through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the Bhubaneswar Metro Rail Corporation and the DMRC for the completion of the project within four years. “This collaboration is a significant milestone in Odisha’s transportation history, symbolizing a transformation in the state’s capital region. In fact, the government of the day is poised to transform the transportation landscape in the state’s capital region,” said the CM. This is a flagship program under the 5T (teamwork, technology, transparency, timely completion leading to transformation) initiative of the government that will also symbolize the emergence of a new Odisha.
