Posted September 5, 2016 (edited) Bridge Construction - COMPLETE! The bridge, North Highway Connection, (32x 29y) is now complete thanks to the fast work of the bridge crew! They were busy with the dirt ramps when I went to sleep and I woke up to a completed bridge, so the whole thing only took them about 6 - 7 hours! Great thanks to everybody offering to help and donating materials! Bridge crew : Aarontx Cerber Dano Davide Pingpong Fantastic job everybody - this will definitely save a lot of travelling time! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New bridge at 32x 29y to ease travel by bypassing the Damascus tunnel (which is not being maintained) Spoiler Edited September 13, 2016 by Kasumi 15 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 5, 2016 I am all for it 100%. I use the damascus tunnel all the time to get to the west side of DF from my deed on Collosus Lake. Its so helpful so I don't have to go south around DF. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 5, 2016 I don't live in the area but it seems like a logical place to have one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 5, 2016 I'm for it 100 percent. I used to keep the damascus tunnel clear but someone decided to reinforce some tiles on the east side and eventually I said forget it. Let me know if ya need some help, can contact me in game or on the forums. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 5, 2016 Tich was going to make this the first bridge on Indy when they came out, but someone who didn't want it deeded the one coast to prevent it. Glad that deed popped. this will save a bunch of travel time heading east from BDI. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 5, 2016 I am in favour. I do live in the area, Calico Shores, across the bay from the east entrance of Damascus Tunnel, so I would find a bridge useful. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 5, 2016 An excellent project--I've had to mine my way out of that old tunnel before. Will likely use the bridge from time to time for a change of scenery, though I think it will still be shorter for me to travel the other side of DF to get to the north. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted September 8, 2016 Ahhhh.. have always wondered if there was a name for that Highway Tunnel. Thank you for that Kasami ! BTW, Skyefox reopened last week it as she uses it regularly during her mapping surveys. The name will be appended to Canals-Tunnels layer of the Albia Roads map, and be visible with the next update release. ... and YES to a bridge across Niki's Inlet. Cheers!

Posted September 10, 2016 Thanks for all the feedback and offers to help! There doesn't seem to be any objections so we'll get started on the bridge this coming week. I'll be in contact with the ppl we offered to help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 10, 2016 That is the exact spot where I train horses on swimming. This is a nerf to it I'm totally against the bridge. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 10, 2016 (edited) Troll mode off: a real great one,I love the idea! I always hated to need to swim there,it is really a big thing that the area is now available for building. If you need an additional hand to tick in materials let me know. Edited September 10, 2016 by Jaz 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lovely, thanks for completing this old project, you are great wurmians! Would have taken a heck of a lot longer if it wasn't for the prep work you did!

Cause you were the closest to it and "Damascus tunnel" was shorter to say than "that tunnel near Damascus" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
