Hill International has received two rail contracts in India, with a total project value estimated at nearly USD 4 billion.
The first contract is from Rail Vikas Nigam Limited (RVNL) to provide project management services for a project that will double the 120 km of rail line in Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh, India.
The second project entails providing quality and safety audit consultancy for the World Bank-funded Eastern Dedicated Freight Corridor, namely the Sahnewal-Khurja section and Khurja-Dadri link. Hill International will be working in conjunction with the consortium of Italferr S.P.A and local consultant Vogue Construction and Consultancy Services for the related infrastructure for the 397 km Sahnewal-Khurja section and double line electrified railway track for the Khurja-Dadri link (approximately 46 km).
“Doubling the Varanasi Rail Line and Eastern Dedicated Freight Corridor are ambitious projects that present several technical challenges. However, Hill’s expertise and experience will be valuable in helping both undertakings achieve their goals and support the region’s ongoing growth,” Regional President for the Middle East, Abdo E. Kardous, said.
