Gainwell takes immense pride in its association with the prestigious 3.42 km long, three-lane twin tunnel project in Odisha. The SEM Side Dump Loaders (Caterpillar brand), supplied to M/s Dineshchandra R. Agrawal Infracon Pvt. Ltd. R Agrawal Infracon, Ahmedabad has played a critical role in the tunnelling project of national importance. The first breakthrough of the tunnel on May 21, 2024, marked a significant milestone in the construction of Tube 2 of the twin tunnel project on the Raipur-Visakhapatnam Expressway. This transformative infrastructure project, with an estimated budget of INR 15,000 crore, spans 464 km and aims to connect Raipur and Visakhapatnam via Odisha by 2025.

The project is expected to reduce the travel time by half between the two cities to a mere seven hours, fostering regional connectivity and stimulating economic growth. Upon completion, the expressway will boost trade, spur economic activity, and improve the overall quality of life for residents. Moreover, the expressway is designed to connect with the Eastern Economic Corridor in the future, further enhancing regional connections and unlocking new opportunities for economic development.

The deployment of SEM Side Dump Loaders in the project proved invaluable, contributing to the accelerated progress achieved by the National Highways Authority of India contractor. Notably, the contractor excavated 750 meters of the tunnel within a single month and completed 36.8 meters of face excavation per day from four faces, setting a new national record. The SEM Side Dump Loaders were instrumental in clearing debris throughout the construction process.

At the invitation of M/s Dineshchandra R Agrawal Infracon, Mr. Deepak Jolly , Head of Construction Industries, represented Gainwell at the milestone ceremony.

We extend our sincere congratulations to M/s Dineshchandra R Agrawal Infracon and its Team OD-7 for this remarkable achievement. The breakthrough of the tunnel is a testament to the unwavering commitment and dedication of all involved.
