The Yellow Road is a major transport route between Newlands and Kurai Cho. It is the oldest part of Simmuel's Road Complex, maintained by SimmConnect.

Origins

The construction of Yellow Road began in December 2011 by getplayerhead.sh?Simmuel&16.png Simmuel, with the aim of connecting the (then) little town of Newlands to fast-growing Kurai Cho, which was about to be made a warp. The other closest warp was the cobblestone hell called Emucraft, which was very far away, and was also not well connected to Newlands. The road expanded rapidly westwards from Newlands, up until the moment where getplayerhead.sh?Simmuel&16.png Simmuel decided that a plain stone brick road just doesn't cut it. The road was therefore redesigned to include the yellow-and-white marking, which would then become a hallmark of Simmuel's Road Complex. The road was completed in February 2012, and it ended about 400m from Kurai Cho, in a place called Cafe Under Dome. Soon after, a railway was added under the road, all the way to the Cafe Under Dome. In 2014, the road was partially isolated by glass panes, ensuring safe passage of travellers (another hallmark of Simmuel's Road Complex. Overall, the road has been redesigned and rebuilt multiple times, fully or partially, and is used as a blueprint for all new roads built as part of Simmuel's Road Complex.

The road was there to be continued by getplayerhead.sh?thesprazzzler&16.png thesprazzzler in style of Kurai Cho. Few months later, the Newlands Bridge was built, but the road remained incomplete for a long time. The final bridge between Cafe Under Dome and Kurai Cho, Okina Hashi, was finished almost a decade later.

When one road isn't enough

The Yellow Road was just the beginning of getplayerhead.sh?Simmuel&16.png Simmuel's road-a-palooza. The road serves as the access backbone to all of his creations built in the surroundings of Newlands, including Vertigo Tower, Simmuel's Mart, Simmuel's Sheep Farm, Sunshine Park, The Monument, and an outdated training ground. It also links to the other roads of Simmuel's Road Complex, including the Green Road to Forestberg (and indirectly the Purple Road to Mistral Valley) and the Red Road to Pyetopia and Nexus East 3. Other points of interest include getplayerhead.sh?BryBer&16.png BryBer's and getplayerhead.sh?Korath95&16.png Korath95's Castle, a Random Nether Portal, getplayerhead.sh?Ted1246&16.png Ted1246's Community Castle, getplayerhead.sh?TigerQueen&16.png TigerQueen's Jellyfish Garden, and a huge dome near Kurai Cho

The Yellow Road also started out what grew into South-East Railways, one of the most complex rail systems in Freedonia (aside of Freedonia Railway System).
