The Ministry of PUPR also built the Bige Bypass road which can be used as a roadpass for logistics transportation.
This 9.8 km roadpass is an alternative route for tourists to and/or to Silangit - Parapat so that they do not need to enter the city of Balige, so that traffic can be smoother, the condition of the inner city road is more durable, not crossing large vehicles, while at the same time reducing the number of accidents.
