Infrastructure projects underway in Tapanuli regions

Infrastructure development is progressing in the Tapanuli regions of North Sumatra. In North Tapanuli, the construction of the Phase VII B concrete bridge in Hutajulu, Simataniari Village, has reached 79 percent completion. Personnel from Kodim 0210/TU are working alongside local residents to cast the bridge floor. The project aims to improve connectivity for approximately 350 people, facilitating the transport of agricultural products and reducing transportation costs.

In South Tapanuli, the Public Works and Spatial Planning Department is executing a project to install gabions for road protection in Sawmill, Angkola Selatan. This project, which includes cutting work at Aek Natas, has a budget of approximately 2.99 billion IDR funded by regional transfers. The initiative targets road sections prone to landslides and flooding to prevent road damage and river overflow. The work is scheduled for completion by the end of November 2026.
