Highways



Highways are the primary infrastructure on 2b2t. Highways have been in use since the earliest days of the server, however, the nether highways only became the primary travel method after the Nether Roof was patched in 2013.

xcc2's 43z Highway
One of the oldest highways in the Spawn region. It was started by xcc2 in 2011 and maintained until the Second Incursion in 2013. It was well known for the netherrack pillars alongside the highway that provided light.

Old Spawn Road
A system of cobblestone paths strewn around Spawn built by LegitYarik. Named by Fit. Griefed completely by Armorsmith in 2017.

berkbrein and b4uit's -1mil X Highway
Created by berkbrein and b4uit. Started around -1,000,000 on the X axis, and intended to expand all the way to -1,000,000 on the Z axis. Stretches about ~100,000 blocks.

Flower Trail
A path covered in flowers stretching over 12,000 blocks in the vicinity of Spawn. Reviewed by YouTuber BarrenDome in 2019. It is unknown who created the trail.

1533z
A highway created by various builders along 1,533Z. Roughly 100,000 blocks in length.

Ring Road
A ring of obsidian around spawn with a radius of 1,000. Created by IronException.

Axial Highways
The overworld axial highways, created by various players over the years. In 2014, Hausemaster placed 4x4 obsidian paths along every axis, stretching out to 1,000. These paths were harvested for obsidian by taylo112 and jared2013 to create Gold Farms.

Raised Stone Slab Spawn Roads
Created by ChadDX from 2012-2014. They are placed at seemingly random intervals around spawn, and are griefed and repaired quite often.

Axial Highways
Highways along the axes and their diagonals, created and maintained by various players over the years. The first highway to reach 1,000,000 (+X) in the overworld was dug primarily by omaliymix in 2012, as detailed in THEJudgeHolden's comics. The +X highway was also the site of Byrnsy's mission to reach the overworld World Border, which was achieved in 2017. As of 2020, all axial nether highways, and their diagonal counterparts, extend to the overworld world border.

Highway Building/Maintenance Groups
Groups such as IIS(Independent Interstate Society), (SIG)Spawn Infrastructure Group, And MEG Motorway Extension Gurus have helped to repair and expand the current highways. IIS mainly repairs the current highways. MEG expands highways to the world border, most recently to the world border corners. SIG primarily repairs highways, however SIG is currently inactive.
