History

• March 26, 2017: The +X axis highway has always been at the forefront of highway development due to it being the most travelled highway. It was the first highway to reach 1,000,000 in the Overworld when it was dug primarily by omaliymix in 2012, as detailed in THEJudgeHolden's comics. The highway was the site of Byrnsy's mission to reach the Overworld world border (see his album), which his group the Nether Highway Group achieved.

• March/April 2020: IIS paved the highway up to 125k in the Nether.
• August/September 2020: MEG widened the tunnel to 3×3 up to the Overworld world border.
• December 14, 2020: HWU extended the obsidian-paved highway to 1 million out in the Nether.
• June 2021: The Nether world border (30,000,000 blocks out) has been reached with a 1x2 tunnel.
• April 2021: MEG extended the +X 6x4 to 3.75M (Overworld world border)
• July 2021: HWU extended the obsidian-paved highway to the Overworld world border.

Structure

The Cardinals +X Highway is consistently built with a 6×4 block cross-section and remains fully paved throughout its entire length. The highway has a total length of 3,750,000 blocks and was completed in July 2021.
