Construction updates

After winter weather and material delays slowed construction in January and February, we’re delighted to report that we’re back to building at full speed. We’ve completed construction on 190 miles of fiber in our Yeddo and Wea build areas, bringing service to over 1,450 homes. As of mid-March, construction is underway in our Roberts and Hillsboro builds.
