First Fibre Pulls for CCV

The first fibre pulls along Dwyer Hill and inside of CCV took place this week! Here are a few photos of the work and the results… Yes, it’s actually happening!

CCV completion now in sight!

For the past 6 months, the Community Fibre crew has been busy working on the CCV project along Dwyer Hill and inside the Country Club Village subdivision. This project is by far the most complicated undertaking we could have tackled, with plenty of hard lessons learned in the process. Much of the complexity arose from […]
