The scope of work covers the design, supply, installation, testing and commissioning of an automatic signalling system on the Whitefield Jolarpettai section. This route is an important corridor in the division, and the introduction of automatic signalling is expected to improve operational efficiency, reduce headway between trains and enhance safety standards.
The project has been awarded to BPPL ETIL JV, a joint venture in which E2E Transportation Infrastructure is a key participant. As per the contract conditions, the company is required to submit a performance guarantee equivalent to 5 per cent of the contract value. This works out to approximately INR 4.89 crore and must be furnished within 21 days from the issuance of the Letter of Acceptance.
The total execution timeline for the project is 30 months from the date of the Letter of Acceptance. The signalling upgrade forms part of Indian Railways ongoing efforts to modernise high-traffic sections and strengthen safety systems across its network. Automatic signalling allows multiple trains to operate safely on the same line by dividing the track into smaller blocks, thereby improving capacity utilisation.
The company has stated that its cumulative order inflow between early October last year and late February this year stands at INR 377.99 crore, including GST. With this addition, its open order book is valued at around INR 660 crore. E2E Transportation Infrastructure has been active in railway signalling, telecommunication and allied infrastructure works, and this contract further strengthens its presence in the southern railway zone.
In recent years, South Western Railway has undertaken several signalling upgrades and capacity enhancement projects in Karnataka to support rising passenger and freight traffic. The Whitefield Jolarpettai section is strategically important as it connects industrial and suburban areas, making signalling reliability critical for smooth train operations.
