Railway stations is outsourced and at some of stations wherever outsourcing is not
feasible the service is managed through departmental mode. While the primary objective
of this policy is to extend parking facility to the passengers as an important amenity at
station but all endeavour be made to realise maximum potential of earnings from this
source.

where such facilities are required. For this purpose, teams of Engineering and Commercial
supervisors should finalize a plan for the stations after survey of the parking area with
locations and dimensions clearly marked on the plan.

shall provide a well demarcated, fenced and levelled surface to the contractor for parking
purpose, covered sheiter can be provided by the contractor in a manner that it does not.
adversely affect the aesthetics of the station building or the circulating area of the station.
1.4 Divisions may also explore the possibility of managing parking of vehicle at stations
departmentally especially at such stations where outsourcing has not been found to be
feasible. This may be done within the existing resources and no additional posts should be
created for this purpose.

2.1 Atall category of stations i.e. A-1, A, B, C, 0, E and F the parking contracts may be
awarded through ‘Single packet’ Open tender system for a period of 3 years. However, if
there is a lack of response, contract can be awarded on quotation basis for a limited period

of three months at a time, with the concurrence of Divisional Finance and the approval of

DRM/ADRM.

expiry of the existing contract so that there is no time gap between the expiry of existing
contract and commencement of the new one.
