Actually, the name of Nine Nine refers to a winding road through the hills in Nagari Sarilamak, Harau Sub-district, Limapuluh Kota Regency, West Sumatra.
The road, if stretched straight for only 300 meters with a 5 meter wide road built by the Dutch Colonial government in 1908-1914 to facilitate transportation from the Port of Emma Haven [Bayur Bay] west of Sumatra to the east.
However, as time progressed, the road could no longer accommodate the volume of vehicles passing through the route, resulting in inevitable congestion. The solution, it is proposed making the flyover through two hills that flank the road.
So in 2003, the construction of Kelok Sembilan Bridge was held by the Ministry of Public Works (now Ministry of Public Works and People's Housing) with the concept of green construction or environmentally friendly because it is in the nature reserve area. Construction of the bridge at a cost of Rp580 billion was done within a period of 10 years.
The Kelok Sembilan Bridge is divided into six bridges with connecting roads along more than 1.5 kilometers.
For the six bridges, each has a different length. The first bridge with a length of 20 meters, the second bridge 230 meters, the third bridge 65 meters, the fourth bridge the longest 462 meters, the fifth bridge 31 meters, and the sixth bridge along 156 meters.

Because, Kelok Sembilan Bridge has become a transit location and a new tourist icon in the area, so many people who use the moment to trade.
