next-generation connectivity to thousands of local businesses and
residents
AURORA,
Colo., April 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Ting
Internet, a division of Tucows (NASDAQ: TCX) (TSX: TC),
announced today that it is bringing its highly sought after fiber
internet services to Aurora,
Colorado, delivering the power and reliability of fiber
internet to local businesses and residents. This will be Ting's
largest network build to date and, once completed, will pass over
130,000 serviceable addresses.
Known for its world-class customer service and lightning-fast
fiber internet, Ting currently operates in seven states and 14
markets across the country. Locally, Ting has served Centennial, Colorado since 2016 and recently
announced its expansion to both Colorado
Springs and Colorado's
Western Slope. In each of its markets, the company prides itself on
connecting people with resilient fiber internet, reducing the
digital divide and becoming an active community partner.
"We are thrilled to bring the first city-wide fiber network to
Aurora, allowing us to connect the
entire community to the benefits of a network that has been
purpose-built for the internet," said Jill
Szuchmacher, Executive Vice President, Ting Internet. "Fiber
internet provides opportunities for step-change economic
development and technological resilience in communities, both of
which will benefit local residents and businesses for decades to
come."
Construction on Ting's fiber network is expected to begin early
this summer, with initial internet access to start rolling out by
the end of the year. During the early phases of infrastructure
deployment, Ting will focus its efforts on establishing a local
presence, making vital connections with enterprises within the
community, and rounding out its local Aurora team.
"We heard for years from residents that they want more choice in
internet providers," said Francoise
Bergan, Mayor Pro-Tem of Aurora. "With Ting coming to Aurora, customers will have choice and
competition, which is always a winning formula."
