The road condition from Sibolga to Medan is relatively good. There are deep valleys and the road is steep, narrow and curvy between Tapteng to Tarutung. Traffic jams can be seen in small towns along the route, particularly in and around Medan city.
Road assessment from Sibolga to Panyabungan (Mandailing natal) took 4 hours by driving, with total distance 166 km. Approximately 60 km long between Sibolga to Batang Toru (Tapanuli Selatan), the road is narrow and damaged. Parlimbungan Ketek is a port located in Mandailing Natal, 110 km away from its capital town of Panyabungan. Access to the port is bad due to an ongoing road construction.
