The government is expected to reopen the tender for Sukkur-Hyderabad
Motorway (M-6) after receiving poor response in pre-bid qualification. According to sources, the government received only 1 bid for qualification to pick the project on Public Private Partnership (PPP) mode, which is estimated to be completed with Rs175 billion.
After deliberating over the legal implications of a single bid the government has decided to reopen the tender for Sukkur-Hyderabad Motorway (M-6).
The Hyderabad-Sukkur Motorway project envisages construction of 306kms long, six-lane wide, access-controlled motorway. The motorway is proposed to be a high-speed toll road facility for efficient and safe transportation, which will start from Hyderabad (end of Karachi-Hyderabad Motorway M-9) and terminate at Naro Canal (start of Sukkur-Multan Motorway M-5).
The Sukkur-Hyderabad Motorway (M-6) passes through Jamshoro, Tando Adam, Hala, Shahdadpur, Nawabshah, Moro, Dadu, Naushehro Feroze, Mehrabpur, Rasoolpur, Larkana, Khairpur, and Sukkur.
