By the 26th century, Voi was a futuristic worker town, and it was filled with mechanical factories and shoreline buildings. A number of [[water]] pumping stations managed by the [[GWC Trans-African Pipelines]], such as the [[Voi Municipal Water Pump House 03]] located around 17 kilometers from Voi, took care of the water supply in the town.
