Divided into a series of seven [[Community Goals]] that took place between October 7, 3307 and March 10, 3308, the massive undertaking significantly expanded the number of stationary [[Wells-class Carrier]]s and [[starport]]s along the [[Colonia Connection Highway]] route between the [[Colonia Region]] and the [[Core Systems]], increasing the ease of travel between the two regions. The Colonia Bridge officially starts in Alcor and terminates in [[Colonia]]. | ||

The fourth initiative of phase four and final overall initiative of the Colonia Bridge project commenced on March 3, 3308. The last services slated for implementation were [[Outfitting]], [[Shipyard]]s, and [[Technology Broker]]s. Furthermore, Brewer Corporation presented a second opportunity to install Pioneer Supplies on Promium Relay. Exclusive rewards for this initiative included pre-Engineered [[Power Plant]]s and exploration-themed [[Livery|ship decals]], and all pilots who had participated in any one of the Colonia Bridge's seven initiatives were also promised a Brewer Corporation ship decal as a token of gratitude from the megacorporation.<ref name="Final Bridge">[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/6220bc9ee663a646511797f5 GalNet: Final Week for Colonia Bridge Project]</ref> | The fourth initiative of phase four and final overall initiative of the Colonia Bridge project commenced on March 3, 3308.

The final initiative accomplished all of its quotas, allowing the Colonia Bridge project to conclude in triumph. Brewer Corporation CEO [[Madelyn Teague]] expressed her gratitude to contributors in a rare personal message, and noted that the Colonia Bridge's ports would support travel and trade between the Core Systems and the Colonia Region for decades to come. The top contributors in each of the project's seven initiatives were recorded in commemorative beacons that were placed in the Alcor and Colonia systems.<ref name="Bridge Completion">[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/622a01812d6be116787efaf9 GalNet: Colonia Bridge Reaches Completion]</ref> | |||

*<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pilots' Federation ALERT*<br/>[[Brewer Corporation]]'s project to improve travel between the [[Core Systems|core systems]] and [[Colonia Region|Colonia region]] has successfully concluded. The final batch of service installations wraps up construction work on the six [[starport]]s. The following services will be available at Canonn Complex, Helgrind Gateway, Venatores Hub, Vladmir McDoogle's Triumph and Zerreiss Station:<br/>[[Universal Cartographics]] \ [[Vista Genomics]]<br/>[[Pioneer Supplies]] \ [[Bartender]]<br/>[[Multicrew|Crew Lounge]] \ [[Search and Rescue Agent|Search and Rescue]]<br/>[[Material Trader]] \ [[Technology Broker|Human Tech Broker]]<br/>[[Outfitting]] \ [[Shipyard]]<br/>The following services will be available at Promium Relay:<br/>Universal Cartographics \ Vista Genomics<br/>Pioneer Supplies \ Bartender<br/>Material Trader \ Human Tech Broker<br/>Outfitting \ Shipyard<br/>Material traders of all types will be represented across the starports.<br/>[[Newsfeed]]s were expecting one final press release from Brewer Corporation, but instead received a rare personal message from the company's CEO [[Madelyn Teague]]: "It gives me enormous pleasure to announce a triumphant end for this historic undertaking. I want to thank every single person whose hard work made this dream of mine a reality. The names of those pilots most dedicated to the project will soon be recorded on commemorative beacons in the Alcor and [[Colonia]] systems. All of us at Brewer Corporation feel a real sense of pride in the Colonia Bridge. For decades to come, these six starports and 56 [[megaship]]s will boost trade, support exploration and serve as way-stations for travellers. They represent what can be achieved when so many of us share the same vision and work together in harmony." Pilots who delivered materials can now collect payment from Macdonald Settlement in the Alcor system and [[Jaques Station]] in the Colonia system. The top 75% of contributors for the past week can also collect their [[Engineers|pre-engineered]] [[Overcharged Power Plant|overcharged]] [[Power Plant|power plant]] modules on the 11th of March.<ref name="Bridge Completion" /> | |||

*<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pilots' Federation ALERT*<br/>Delivery campaigns in the Alcor and [[Colonia]] systems will complete the six [[starport]]s along the Colonia Bridge. Months of work on developing the transportation infrastructure between the [[Core Systems|core systems]] and the [[Colonia Region|Colonia region]] are now coming to an end. [[Brewer Corporation]]'s latest press release specified the requirements: "For this final week, we are asking pilots to deliver [[Auto Fabricators|auto-fabricators]], [[Micro Controllers|micro controllers]] and [[Resonating Separators|resonating separators]] to Macdonald Settlement in the Alcor system and [[Jaques Station]] in the Colonia system. These will allow us to install [[outfitting]], [[shipyard]] and [[Technology Broker|tech broker]] services, as we bring the starports to full operational status. There is also another opportunity to install [[Pioneer Supplies]] at Promium Relay, the bridge starport nearest to Colonia. Brewer Corporation is grateful to independent pilots for their dedication to constructing the Colonia Bridge. We are therefore pleased to offer various classes of [[Engineers#Pre-Engineered modules|pre-engineered]], [[Overcharged Power Plant|overcharged]] [[Power Plant|power plants]] as well as exploration decals to the top 75% of contributors to this concluding stage. Finally, this is the last chance for pilots to obtain a Brewer Corporation decal, which will be awarded to every contributor to any of the Colonia Bridge initiatives as a token of gratitude." The top ten contributors for each of the Colonia Bridge initiatives will have the opportunity to be named in [[Tourist Beacon|tourist beacons]] that will commemorate the project's conclusion.<ref name="Final Bridge" /> | *<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pilots' Federation ALERT*<br/>Delivery campaigns in the Alcor and [[Colonia]] systems will complete the six [[starport]]s along the Colonia Bridge.
