“Of the eight priority routes on the trans-Sumatra, only Tebing Tinggi-Kisaran hasn't begun yet. By finishing the financial structure, we hope the ground-breaking can be carried out in 2017,” said Toll Road Regulatory Agency head Herry Trisaputra Zuna. He was speaking at a recent Jakarta Post conference called "Accelerating Infrastructure Development".
Priority Infrastructure Development Acceleration Committee project director Henry Toruan said poor road connects have hampered development of Kuala Tanjung Port, the biggest international transit port in Sumatra.
