What to Expect

• There may be traffic lane and sidewalk closures.
• You may not be able to enter/exit your driveway or garage temporarily. Please see notes on your notice if you may be directly impacted by restricted driveway access.
• New cables will be installed on existing aerial facilities, as well as new terminals. These cables will range in size of approximately ¾ of an inch in diameter to as small as approximately ¼ of an inch flat cable tails with a terminal mounted on existing poles.
  • During construction you will notice coils of fiber optic cables coiled up at poles in the community as pictured in Figure 1.This is only a temporary situation.
  • When the work is complete those coils will be put in a case and it will be attached to the existing cables. When the job is complete everything will look neat and organized.
  • You may also notice cables in a roller between poles as well but that will also be "lashed up to the existing cables for a clean orderly appearance like in Figure 2.
• You may see new boxes being placed in the ground in various locations in the public right-of-way. This is in effort to avoid having new equipment being placed above ground.
