SPS Construction India has been declared the L1 bidder (lowest bidder) for two major bridge projects in West Bengal, which will significantly improve the state’s infrastructure. These initiatives, totaling Rs 311.77 crore, are expected to relieve congestion on important transit routes and give a modern lifeline to the Purba Bardhaman district.

A New Chapter in Connectivity
For daily commuters and logistics operators in West Bengal, the announcement heralds the start of a more convenient journey. The Public Works Department (PWD) of West Bengal recently launched financial bids, with SPS Construction emerging as the frontrunner. This win reinforces the company’s rising reputation for managing difficult, large-scale technical projects throughout India.
The Shilpa Setu Project
The construction of the Shilpa Setu bridge is one of the contract’s high points. This new structure will bridge the Damodar River for 2.95 kilometers, parallel to the present Krishak Setu.
Why a Second Bridge?
The existing Krishak Setu has long been a bottleneck for traffic entering and exiting the region’s central area. Shilpa Setu will create a parallel path.
- Commercial trucks’ journey times will be drastically reduced.
- Reduce the maintenance strain on the older bridge.
- Increase safety for travelers crossing the river.
Engineering Over Eden Canal
The second component of this multibillion-dollar transaction is a bridge over the Eden Canal. This bridge will span approximately 2.415 kilometers along the Burdwan-Arambagh Road (SH-7).
Boosting SH-7 Traffic
State Highway 7 is an important artery for the Burdwan Division. The new bridge over the Eden Canal is expected to improve the movement of goods and people between Burdwan and Arambagh. This specific location is a hub of economic activity, and a contemporary bridge is precisely what the local sector requires to expand.
The EPC Advantage
Both projects will be performed using the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) approach. This means that SPS Construction India will be in charge of everything, from original design and material sourcing to final construction.
Quality and Accountability
The EPC model is preferred for such high-risk projects because it guarantees:
- Contractors have a single point of responsibility.
- Project delivery deadlines are fixed.
- Throughout the construction process, quality control is strictly enforced.
Impact on the Local Economy
Infrastructure developments on this size move the economy rather than just cars. The Rs 311.77 crore investment is expected to produce hundreds of local jobs throughout the development phase. Furthermore, stronger bridges reduce transportation costs, allowing local farmers and small business owners to get their products to market more quickly and cheaply.
SPS Construction’s Growing Portfolio
This is not the first time SPS Construction has made an impact in the industry. The company has a reputation of producing high-quality river bridges and roadway infrastructure. By acquiring these two contracts in West Bengal, they are establishing themselves as a major role in the development of Eastern India’s transportation corridors.
Future Outlook for Purba Bardhaman
Purba Bardhaman district is often referred to as the “Granary of Bengal.” With the Damodar River and other canals defining its landscape, bridges are the only option to keep the region competitive. The impending Shilpa Setu and Eden Canal bridge are more than just concrete and steel; they will lead to a more prosperous and connected future for West Bengal citizens.
