GPC continues their technology partnership with the City, promoting Chadron as a fiber-forward community, positioned for future growth and opportunity
Blair, Nebraska, October 18, 2022 — Great Plains Communications (GPC), the Midwestern digital infrastructure provider with a growing, privately owned 16,500+ mile fiber network reaching 13 states, announced the company will be building a fiber-to-the-home and business network throughout the City of Chadron, Nebraska, expanding off the ten fiber miles that currently exist in this GPC community. The overbuild will also allow GPC to provide enhanced fiber-driven products and services including symmetrical gigabit-Internet speeds throughout Chadron. The project will be completely funded by Great Plains Communications.
Mark Werner, Mayor of Chadron had this to say. “The City is excited to continue our long-standing technology partnership with GPC to bring fiber-to-the-home and business to Chadron. This fiber network will enhance quality of life for our residents, extend the reach of businesses and aid in our ability to retain and recruit new residents and businesses. We appreciate the direct investment by Great Plains Communications to make this network happen.”
The Chadron project will be completed in phases with construction beginning in the spring of 2023. This endeavor is one of many fiber-forward community projects that Great Plains Communications will begin in 2023 as they continue to grow their network and extend broadband services to more urban and rural midwestern homes and businesses.
“Chadron residents and businesses need access to the benefits and opportunities of a fast, reliable fiber-to-the-home and business network.
