Godrej & Boyce will be supplying 200 km of cables as part of a Rs.107-crore order that it has received from Bangalore International Airport Ltd (BIAL).
In a release, Godrej & Boyce said that its MEP (mechanical, electrical and public health engineering) division has secured an order valued at Rs.107 crore from BIAL.
The scope of the project includes a multimodal transportation hub (MMTH) that will be built between Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 of the Bangalore International Airport in Karnataka. The project entails 75 km of piping and 200 km of cabling, the release said.
The project is scheduled for completion in six months.
Once operational, the MMTH will facilitate the current and future needs of both people and luggage movement. Covering some 9 lakh sqft, the MMTH will have covered parking area and retail development space at the ground level, the release noted.
Crucial MEP measures
Commenting on the order, Pravin Rawool, AVP & Business Head – Godrej MEP, said, “We are thrilled to be delivering our first significant MEP project for BLR Airport within a short span of six months. The government’s quest for enhancing the country’s infrastructure has resulted in the creation and renovation of airports all over India. To maintain the structure’s safety and comfort, airports require crucial MEP measures. These systems are the central nervous system of any building. Our services not only augment operational efficiency but also aid in the efficient use of limited community resources. With the execution of this order, we hope to continue offering competent mechanical, electrical, and firefighting services that are critical to the operation and safety of infrastructure projects.”
