TBG client, Huntsville Utilities, announces Google Fiber in Huntsville, Alabama.
“Adding a new wrinkle to its service expansion strategy, Google Fiber has inked a deal to offer gigabit and TV services on a fiber network that Huntsville Utilities is building.
Huntsville started down that path in 2014, inviting potential partners to join the effort. Google Fiber said it is on board, and has already set up a site where potential customers in Huntsville can sign up to stay apprised of the progress.
‘So what comes next? Pending final approvals, Huntsville Utilities will design and construct its network,’ Jill Szuchmacher, director, Google Fiber expansion, announced in this blog post. ‘Once the network is built, Google Fiber — or any other broadband provider — will be able to bring high speed Internet service to the city. This is just the beginning of the process, so it’s too early to share dates or timelines.'”
