Although only three days since the last update, another section of TRAVEL has opened to the public, so it's time for another one!

Here's the new map, which was hastily edited from Friday's version. The section from Spawn East Station to Avalon Station is now open.

New Stations:

• Viridian Heights: Located in the small community of East Viridian Heights, this station also provides access to New Timor and is only a short walk away from Ironstar and its End Portal.

• Avalon: This station is situated along the desert coast, east of Avalon proper, with wonderful vistas of the sphinx and obelisk of Buzhotep.

Public Advisories:

• Brom Station construction is now relatively complete thanks to the diligent work of Millennia Systems Inc.'s Bromulan partners. However, the city at large remains under construction around it so do be careful when exploring after arrival!

• Automatic cart forwarding is now active in both directions at Spawn East Station, as well as at both new stations. Carts departing eastbound from the end-of-line Avalon station will turn around and re-enter the station travelling northbound. Riders are advised not to disembark at the end of the turnabout due to Phase 4-related construction activities and a falling hazard.

• As always, players building near stations not yet connected to roads are encouraged to construct road connections to the designated station entrances. In particular with this latest expansion, Avalon is invited to construct a road to its station. Due to proximity with Ironstar's western road, a second entrance may be added to Viridian Heights Station to facilitate a connection.

Future Expansions:

• Phase 4: This expansion will see construction of the largest single piece of infrastructure in the TRAVEL system: a massive bridge embarking from the eastern shore of Avalon to cross the large ocean. The as-yet-unnamed bridge will carry the TRAVEL Yellow Line as well as a four-metre-wide horse-safe roadway. A TRAVEL station at the far end of the bridge on the large remote island is the planned terminus for the Yellow Line, though a loopback extension to Sybercity is a possibility.

• Phase 5: This long-distance phase will entail the extension of the TRAVEL Yellow Line from its present northern terminus to the cities of the N.E.A. Construction will involve significant tunneled segments as well as standard elevated lines, and an as-yet-undetermined number of new stations.

• Subsequent Phases: Detailed plans for further expansion will be made upon the completion of Phases 3-5. Future expansion will likely include the addition of a western line serving some or all of the following communities: Hyrule, Two Lips, Blackriver, Rose, Puggleston, Metal Mountains, and Pico.

As always, TRAVEL is accepting materials donations to facilitate expansion. The following are the most needed materials for immediate construction activities:

• Diorite
• Nether Quartz Blocks
• Nether Brick (Blocks or Fences)
• Sea Lanterns (or Glowstone)
• Hardened Clay (yellow or unstained)
• Andesite

TRAVEL's donation chest is located at the south gate of Spawn.
